The Skiers' Guide to Obergurgl-Hochgurgl

The runs were groomed OK, but there are quite a few runs that degrade late in the afternoon.

The resort itself is compact a lot of ski shops to cater for all of your needs, and a few restaurants, typical ski resort type, some attached to other hotels some not, there is even a Spa shop for those self catering.

Over all a manufactured ski resort, with a bit to do, we were there for two weeks and to avoid getting bored we went to Sölden (free bus and lifts are included on you ski pass) for a number of days, al lot bigger and some wider runs.

As we went for two weeks we got free entry to the 007 exhibition!

Have been to this restaurant so many times. Was the place where I learnt to ski, attended the ski school a lot. Really enjoyed it including, having the opportunity to go out for lunch and lots of hot chocolate breaks! Lovely runs and good lifts

If your looking for groomed quiet pistes to ride then this is the place for you. We'll connected with hochgurgl and lifts are usually without any ques. The area is simply stunning. It is more expensive than neighbouring Solden but that reflects in the quality of the terrain. Lots of bars and restaurants on the mountains all with lively atmosphere. In the town there are lovely outdoor bars.. then as the night unwinds the hotel bars are warm, comfortable and relaxing. If you want more energy in the night solden is a short bus ride away and the ski bus is regular. We absolutely love this place! We even had our wedding here up at Alm Mutt on the top of the mountain!! Stunning!!
