Hauser Kaibling, Mountain summit in Haus, Styria, Austria
Hauser Kaibling is a 2015-metre summit in the Ennstal Alps above Haus im Ennstal, the highest of the four mountains of the Schladminger 4-Berge-Skischaukel, linked with Planai, Hochwurzen and Reiteralm. Its slopes carry 2 black, 6 red and 8 blue pistes, served by 6 chairlifts, 2 T-bar lifts, 2 gondolas and the Schladminger-Tauern-Seilbahn. A 70-metre reinforced-concrete transmitter tower of the ORS stands at 1858 metres.
Hauser Kaibling hosted the women's downhill, slalom and combined events of the 1982 Alpine World Ski Championships. The Krummholzhütte was built in 1908. On 1 December 2025 two new lifts opened under the "Vier Berge Ski Super Connection", entering service on 6 December and replacing the Senderbahn and Sonneckbahn quad chairs between Hauser Kaibling and Planai.
The Krummholzhütte, built in 1908, is one of the mountain's long-standing huts and opens in summer as well as winter. Near the top station of the Schladminger-Tauern-Seilbahn, the TOMiziel and the Krummholzhütte serve food outside the ski season, while the Kaiblingalmhütte stands about two kilometres away on the alm of the same name.
The summit is reached by the Schladminger-Tauern-Seilbahn, whose top station sits at 1,858 m next to the 70 m concrete transmitter tower of the ORS. From there the Gipfelbahn and Kaibling 8er gondola serve the upper slopes, and the Senderbahn links across to Planai. The Krummholzhütte and TOMiziel at the top station stay open in summer as well as winter.
The 70-metre reinforced-concrete transmitter tower of Österreichische Rundfunksender GmbH stands at 1,858 metres on the mountain and carries radio and television signals. The Krummholzhütte, built in 1908, is among the oldest huts on the slopes.
