Obergurgl-Hochgurgl Reviews & Ratings

A quiet resort that works great for families or learners & with the options to go off to Solden as well on the bus is really good

First ski holiday ever and was the best holiday Ive ever been on cant wait to go again.
Hopefully be a bit better for next time :)

Great friendly resort with good range of Blue, Red and Black runs. The 6-day Otztal pass also gives you access to skiing at Hochgurgl and Solden too!
And the Nederhutte is legendary for apres-ski!

Often skied here as a kidfabulous lifts and slopes, great snow and the village is just wonderful for walking apres. Great places to stay. We always stay a bit up the Gaisberg so you can just ski down to the lift. The place we stay at has a really great breakfast buffet. But its the ski-lifts and runs. Everything is super modern and well maintained. Its a bit past the larger town of Sölden, but in my view really worth the extra few minutes drive. Its basically the end of the valley so no through-traffic to dodge. And as its base elevation is very high, they seem to always have snow!
Highly recommend to also come back for the hiking in the summer (where you can also see how well maintained the slopes are off ski season. Beautiful mountain meadows as they were protected by deep snow :) ). Have often skied Whistler/Blackcomb, and resorts in the Canadian Rockies - Obergurgl has a very different feel - huge ski terrain with a true alpine village charm. The charm comes from the location, the scenery and of course the Gurgler people :)

We stayed in Hochgurgl, a very small village, but the skiing and the slopes are amazing, and whenever I've been, it's been very quiet. The ski in, ski out from most hotels is quite literally ski in/out.

Obergurgl-Hochgurgl is a beautiful quiet ski resort.Great skiing and guaranteed snow. The ski school was excellent and the apre ski is out of this world.

Been skiing in Obergurgl for many years.
Great snow sure village with fantastic accommodation and ski
Facilities.

Ski lifts super fast , new and y crowded even at the busy times of the day.

Well maintained pistes for days of skiing fun.
Not the hardest skiing but ideal for intermediate and beginners with excellent ski school

Obergurgle is a great resort. The time of year that we went it wasn't too busy on the slopes. There are lots of runs accommodating all levels and there was enough to do apres ski whether you are young or old. The barrel bar was one of my personal favourites. Also on the way down there were plenty of bars to stop for food and a hot chocolate or an occasional gluevine
There are plenty of hotels to chose from and all are of a great standard with the ability to ski in and out at many.

Fantastic little resort with a good range of slopes. Well worth a visit to Sölden as well for those who get through the runs in Obergurgl-Hochgurgl faster.

Great accommodation selection although many are hotels with half-board/self catered so restaurant provision in the village isnt great.

The Nederhütte is a must for aprés, and night skiing is a fun addition .

Great snowsure resort. Small but enough to do. Nice hotels with some good eary apres on the slopes.

I love this resort. I have been multiple times and the slopes are brilliant. It is not too overcrowded and ski lifts are always easy to get on. The staff on the resort are amazing, especially the ski school. This is a good place for families with a good variety of runs. I would say hochgurgl has better quality of snow but Obergurgl has more variety of slopes.
All the hotels are great and the local people are really friendly. Its a safe place for women only travellers too.

Been here 3 times, such a great picturesque resort in Austria, with wonderful hotels and great for families.

It is known for having one the best ski schools in the alps.

Also make sure you visit the Niederhutte for the crazy Apres!!

Perfect for all the family. Perhaps not the place for the ultimate thrill seeker but outstanding for stunning vistas, great snow management, excellent food and no mega long lift queues

Excellent snow sure resort, perfect for families of any level, many kilometres of beautiful runs on and off piste. Excellent lifts never to busy.

Obergurgl is a great place to visit. We enjoyed ski in ski out facilities in an amazing hotel. The 360 restaurant at the top was awesome for evening sunsets before skiing the last run down. You can get the connecting cable car over to explore many more areas. We also visited the bike museum. Fantastic holiday.

Fantastic resort. Great for beginners as always in excelled condition. Slightly more limited as its a smaller resort but enough to keep it interesting

Lovely resort, all hotels in town are close to the slopes with some ski in and out. Good for beginners and more advanced.

We joined family friends for a week at Obergurgl (Chalet Obergurgl). It is a short walk to the busses and ski lifts as well as all the necessary shops to hire equipment etc. Obergurgl is highly rated for its snow quality, and we can fully agree. The ratio of people per ski lift is far less than other resorts we visited, meaning that you spend much less time queuing for lifts than most resorts. There is a fantastic high altitude fancy restaurant (where they shot the James Bond - Spectre film). The views are breathtaking!!! There is no shortage of apres ski either. The resort is a little pricey, but definitely worth a trip! A short drive from Obergurgl to Solden and you can do some fun night skiing too, so always remember to get a ski pass that permits skiing in both regions!

The resort is huge with very efficient lift systems
The top view is stunning

Fabulous experience
It offers all different level of piste
Can't think of anything negative

Plenty of ski runs, with option of doing hochgurgl/ obergurgl made easy with the gondola. Fab piste conditions, and when theres a white out, the off piste snowboarding is up there!
