Recent Reviews

I do not really like Hochkönig. It is crowded, has a huge lack of snow each winter, the food is bad and the people are not friendly.

Went for a long weekend in March with family. Perfect for a long weekend but would have been a bit too quiet for a full week.
Quick/ efficient transfers, zero lift queues and very quiet pistes.
Downside was that nightlife non existent and only minimal restaurant options in the resort.
