Austria

Austrian mountain resorts are a popular winter and summer destination with stunning alpine scenery, beautiful villages and traditional apres-ski. Catering for all tastes, Austria provides chic resorts such as Lech and Kitzbuhel to the livelier towns of St. Anton and Mayrhofen.

Whilst not as high as some resorts, Austria tends to get an abundance of snow due to its unique weather system although saying that, most resorts tend to open up the week before Christmas. The exceptions to this are the glaciers - Austria boats some of the best glacier skiing in Europe - Hintertux, Stubai, Solden and Kitzsteinhorn. Hintertux is open virtually every day of the year and its not uncommon to see the glacier covered in fresh snow in September and packed with local skiers.

Basically, Austria caters for everyone and is particularly attractive for families with younger children as the transfer times are under an hour to most of the resorts from Innsbruck or Salzburg. Plus Austria offers some of the most comprehensive, welcoming and comfortable ski accommodation in the Alps with catered or self-catering chalets to rent or buy, ski apartments and a full range of hotels from budget to 5*.
