The owners of Gaissau-Hintersee that lies to the south of Salzburg have lodged a demolition notice for its ski lifts.
The company that owns the resort has failed to secure an estimated €40 million needed to modernise the ski area, install snowmaking and restart operations.
The resort is situated between 750m and 1,500m.
It has three chairlifts, four T-bars, and two magic carpets.

With climate change and less snow falling the future of the resort has been in doubt for some time.
The resort has not been open in recent years and the demolition notice indicates the end of the road.
The formal demolition request is expected to be processed by state authorities in the next few weeks.
