Through the existing 100% coverage of the runs through the snow machines can power all the main slopes are covered with snow at appropriate temperatures within 72 hours. Renewed investment in snow-making system and the use of advanced GPS technology to help snow depth measurements, which now runs to snow for even faster and more energy efficient.
Of the 2011/2012 season in addition to the then existing "Blue Tomato Snow Park" a "beginner park" was built at the Promibahn has such an overwhelming response that this year another Snow Park will go into operation. Here again is the credo to construct a snow park that can be used by all guests equally, whether they are alpine skiers or freestylers, for an exciting day in the snow.
Thus, there are three snow parks at Stuhleck, the Blue Tomato Snow Park for snowboarders and freeskiers and 2 novice parks for all skiers and snowboarders.
A new feature this year from the Blue Tomato Snowpark and in the beginner park used is the "Bright Cam": By pressing a buzzer at the snow park, a video recording will start receiving the rider while driving over the obstacles. Each video clip is given a number at which you can download it on the website and also send www.stuhleck.com.
Furthermore, there are WLAN hotspots at particular places in the ski resort, the use of which is free. These hotspots are installed at scenic places of interest, so that guests do there and these photos can send directly via the Internet.
Moreover, is the five-kilometer long natural toboggan run, which starts slightly below the top station of the Stuhleckbahn under the motto "Semmi and his friends". Along the family-friendly route figure panels are set up, showing the resort mascot Semmi and his friends. The panels tell a story that is told in the "Semmi newspaper". The "Semmi newspaper" also includes puzzles, coloring pages and much more what fun for kids - it is free and available at all ticket offices of the ski resort.

This pioneering act marks out the Semmering region as one of Austria’s top winter sporting areas, and ensures its continued reputation as the “cradle of winter sports” to this day.
