TOO LONG, DIDN'T READ?
This single page will guide you through the process and will link to more detailed pages if needed.
You need a reservation on your NAME!
This applies also to pillion riders, passengers, friends, or the spouse in the car !
10 Questions, 5 Steps:
- Where, when, how much?
Date is on top of our TT main page.
Location is Hohentauern/Austria + 6 km toll road to Edelraute Mountain Inn (short: Edelraute)
In pandemic times we prefer not to conduct an event in any kind, so we can not process a fee or offer any special services.
- Equipment, Gear ?
Proper winter equipment and some snow riding experience is required and expected . More on that here.
We try to help in case of a breakdown on the toll road. But we do not run a taxi service for optimistic riders with summer tires or no snow chains.
You can call a Hohentauern taxi here > Taxi
- How can I join?
Step 1: Register, if you are not on the List already.
Just send the required e-mail at least 2 weeks before the TT and read the answer: >>> Register.
Incomplete Requests will be processed last. Or not..
Step 2: Read the Answer.
Our answer will tell you if there is space left for your chosen accomodation. Usually we have 400 persons on the list, and only 170 places to give away.
- Camp site or unheated workshop dorm: usually there is always space for camping.
- Edelraute: Rooms or dormitory beds are fully booked end of October, usually. There still may be cancellations, so feel free to ask for a bed anytime.
- Day guest : This always is possible, but you have to find and book accomodation on your own, in Hohentauern or elsewhere. Find info on that here: >>> Details
Schritt 3: Put a reservation and check it.
Reply to the e-mail to tell us what acommodation you want to book.
You will get an e-mail to confirm, and your name will be status invited (green) on the list , which you should check online. Whoever is invited, HAS to be on the list. You will get the access credentials by e-mail on registration.
So check your list entry for errors.That's it!!
- May I stay for only one night?
We usually only have vacancies on Thursday night.
Bute we can put you on the waiting list, just in case something frees up short handed. We rather have a bed occupied for one night than let it unoccupied.
- Can I register a group of riders?
Basically yes, especially if you want the same accomodation for all group members. It will be more difficult the more persons you are and the later you ask.
Recommendation: It is way faster and quicker, if one contact person in your group does registration, reservation, e-mailing for the group.
- What does "Waiting List" mean exactly?
Once all places are booked and still more people want to come, we can put them on the waiting list.
If something frees up we check with people on the waiting list if they still would like to attend. With a quick positive answer on our request e-mail they can be invited.
So: if you are on the waiting list, check your e-mails regularly.
- What if I can not come or have to give up during my travel?
Step 4: Let us know if you can not join. Please write a short mail, whatsapp, text or call the Edelraute, even when the TT has already begun.
Find all contact info here: >>> Details
Your cancellation keeps you on the list for the next Tauerntreffen, and we may be happy to offer your place to another rider.
Please check your list entry later if the cancellation shows up.
- What do I need to bring or leave at home?
