The tourist attractions at the Silberberg mountain, with its former silver mine, include cross-country skiing tracks as well as an alpine skiing hill (about 1,050 m (3,440 ft) above sea level) in winter, doubling in summer as a 600 m (2,000 ft) long alpine slide. There is also a mining museum, reminding of ages of ferro-oxide mining and vitriol production. Some shafts are still accessible.
The village itself is known for its glass shops, the most notable being Joska Glasparadies (Joska glass paradise).
