Ischgl Reviews & Ratings

Been to Ischgl twice and had a brilliant time on both occasions. There is a large ski area with well maintained slopes and some of the best ski lifts I have ridden. There is a good variety for slopes from blues,reds and blacks which will keep all levels of skier busy and content.
I would highly recommend the run over the mountain to Switzerland and down to the duty-free village of Samnaun.

Ischgl has something for everybody! BIG Party Town, both on the mountain and in the town. Everybody should experience mountain side bars pumping out Euro Pop at least once on the trip. They are banged out from lunchtime until late afternoon when for the punters own safety they are told to leave.
The other side of this is that the pistes are much quieter in the afternoon, so a great time to clock up the miles.
The lift system and groomed runs are managed exceptionally well, signage is great and in addition you can ski into Samnaun Switzerland on a duty free run.
A few years ago the Piz Val Gronda cable car was installed that opened up a huge free ride area, which adds to the already numerous off piste lines.
All in all Ischgl is a great resort for whatever you're looking for whether its cruising the groomers, hunting down off-piste freshies, or just there for the apres!!
In my humble opinion Austrian resorts offer the very best all-around mountain experience with an unrivalled welcoming hospitality and where everybody wants you to have a great time, both on and off the mountain and Ischgl will not let you down!

An easy access resort, great skiing and lift system, ski in the afternoon when quiet. A good selection of eateries and the apres ski is awesome.

One of the best resorts in the world. Great ski area with lots of options, one of the best ski runs in the world and excellent apres ski.

Extensive groomed pistes but possibly due to snow conditions opportunities for off piste very limited.

As glamorous as St Anton and lively to boot, Ischgl has it all. Accommodation is mostly hotels and typically upper end but for the money they are decent value and high quality. On the mountain, the large pisted area is well serviced by an efficient lift system. Restaurants on the mountain and in resort are fantastic and most tastes are suitably catered for. A gem of a resort

I skied here in the February half term. The queues getting out of the village in the morning were large and slow moving however, once up on the mountain, queues largely disappeared and it was easy to cover the large ski area.
The skiing is on well groomed runs, generally above the treeline. I initially found the area slightly confusing, but after a day found it easy to plan a route to get around and to whatever area we were heading for.
Skiing over to Samnaun in Switzerland vial the long Smugglers Run is a lovely long run, but beware the relatively flat ending to get to the cable car.
Mountain restaurants are plentiful, varied and good quality.
Apres Ski in Ishgl is renowned and there is plenty of fun to be had.

Iscghl is an absolutely fabulous, snow sure resort

the lfit system is amazing - 6 and 8 seaters, all covered and many with heated seats

apres ski is off the scale

Ischgl is an apres-ski hotspot in the alps yet it has much more to offer. Its 40+ state of the art lift make it possibly the resort with the greatest lift infrastructure. Nearly all chairlifts have a bubble and a majority are heated. Ski enthusiasts will also enjoy a 1 of 1, 180 person 2 story Ariel tramway. However the resorts offers more than just great lifts, it features great on mountain dining with a good range of food, including some rather cheap spots and some other rather fancy restaurants that gives St. Moritz a fun for its money. The resort also features great pistes and some truly incredible offpiste terrain even featuring some really incredible glade skiing. Snow is always abundant in the resorts even in the worst of winters as 80% of the resorts lies above 2200 meters. After skiing is where Ischgl truley shines however with undoubtably the greatest lift infrastructure apres ski scene in the world. Head to places like Kuhstall or Trofana Alm after skiing for some incredible parties that list into the morning hours.

You should go up earlyin the morning, in and go immediately over on the swis then later in the day, you go back on the Austrian side when you're done with skiing and ready for apreski you should go to the "patznauer taja " and then go into a club near the gondola.

Best resort Ive ever skied, from the lift system to the variety of slopes everything is just incredible and finally, to top it off the apres is second to non. 10/10 would recommend to any level of skier. Thoroughly enjoyable resort

Such a beautiful resort but definitely better for intermediate skiers the Tavel from Insbrook airport was extremely easy

Lively resort with plenty of apres.
Great ski area well linked
Swiss side very well linked and well groomed
Duty free run must be done!
Runs to resort can get very busy and icy end of day.

Been to ischgl twice every year for probably the last 7 or so years and everytime its as good as the last. Ive stayed in a variety of hotels and accommodations there and each one is perfect all at different price ranges, food is great and apres is unmatched anywhere in the world. As a ski instructor myself the quality of area to ski is perfect for both newer people and people who are highly experienced had a few lessons in the ski school as a kid and remember it well so would equally recommend that

Fabulous ski resort for all levels great lif network fairly short transfer from Airport, Fantastic restaurants on and off the mountain. Long massive choice of hotels and chalets, Best apres .ski anywhere !

Great resort, friendly people.

High winds could be an issue.

Nice run to Samnaun in Switzerland.

Great apres ski,

During our visit to Ischgl (in the off-season) the resort was busy. The most popular runs were a mixture off ice/moguls despite the significant snowfall.

The resort contains mostly modern lifts however there was constantly queues on the core lifts.

I found the best skiing to be on the edges of the resort (zones E + M). These are long Red runs with ample opportunities off piste om the edge of the runs.

This resort is best for the competent Red skiers. Beginners may be overwhelmed by the crowds on the easy runs and whilst there are challenges for experts, I found these to be generally limited.

Ischgl has a lot to offer to skiers of all ability levels. There are nice and gentle blues, rolling reds, and beautiful off-piste skiing accessible from the lifts, or further afield if you'd like to skin up.

The town is lively and fun, offering many apres bars and lots of restaurants!

Love this place. best skiing combined with Great food and atmosphere on the mountain. Usually in March we get 6 days of skiing in with fabulous snow and sun. Please of slopes for all types, and levels of skiers.

Ischgl offers the perfect combination of great apres ski and beautiful pistes. I would highly recommend to especially young skiers/boarders who enjoy a booming night life. It lacks a bit in off piste skiing compared to other resorts but it makes up for this with some great fun parks. Overall I enjoyed every minute here and can not wait to be back.
