Skiing

by ecklav • 2 Nov 2009, 11:36 • Journals
Hello there,

So I'm planning to go on skiing with some friends..
Where would you guys advice me to go? Or certainly not go?
Me myself, I'm skiing since I was 4y old, but couple of my friends have only done it a couple times. So we are looking for both hard and easy areas.

I've already been to Sölden, Gurgl, Val Thorens and Dolimiti (Italy). So I would like to go somehwere else now.

Have a nice day!

Les 3 valées is nice for skiing/snowboarding but if you want aprés ski, i woud advice Austria because in France it's not that good :)

This year i'm going to Austria Mayrhofen in February & Austria Obergürgel in March

ober&hoch gurgl is still my favorit, but made a plan for myself to go to as much as places as possible. (a lot of 'as' there)
& apres-ski is bad in France, that's true. :D

Surely go to Austria Austria, just cause the food is fucking delicious ^^ (wienerschnitzle, tiroler grustl, kaiserschmarren, knodel suppe etc ;p)

The places that I love in austria are: Solden, Hochgurgl, Ischgl,...

Both... and it certainly depends on weather conditions :p
Last March we had snow 4 out of 6 days so very hard for snowboarding.
You can't compare it with Les 3 vallées ofcourse but it's big enough to entertain yourself for a week!

Knodel suppe should be "Pressknödelsuppe" - disgusting :[
and ur Grustl is a "Gröstl" if u mean the mixed meal with potatoes, onion, Leberkäse and some herbs - delicious :]

try the Germknödel!!! :)

its a huge area connected to Austria Kitzbühel etc - but dont expect a cheap trip!

spiROZE 2 Nov 2009, 12:15
Kitzbühel is too low to be sure of good snow :s

Kitzbühl is just full of tourists who cant skii at all + its expensive.

any hill in austria is covered with noobs, but u r right, its the most expensive area in austria i think...but at least its such huge that i didnt ride any slope twice while a whole week :)
i remember a long trip which ended in a 45min-taxi-trip back home, that was awesome, i already thought i am close to italy^^

Zell am see in austria is quality. great for beginners on the mountain next to the resort and great for more advanced skiiers on the glacier which 10,000 ft and 10 min bus travel away.
