The Skiers' Guide to Schladming

Excellent intermediate Family friendly resort. Staying anywhere in the centre of rhe town near the Planai ski lift is so handy. You can rent your skis there and they have a ski depot just across the road, so handy if you have kids. Great ski run if you get the ski bus to Gleiming and ski back to Schladming covering three mountains. Would recommend this resort and would go back.

I have been skiing here many times and has never failed to make it worth while it’s a perfect place to take your family for either the first or one of many skiing trips

4 separate mountains all accessed from the valley floor. Majority of hotels on the opposite side of this valley, so use of the ski bus is necessary to avoid a long, steep walk! Almost all of the pistes are treelined!

Pistes well groomed every night. Good mountain hospitality. Very large ski area. Efficient lift system with little or no queueing.

4 connected hills form the main resort but the pass gives access to a large area, some accessible by bus but a car needed for the more distant areas.

Mainly a red resort with beginner slopes at mid mountain. The lower slopes became soft in the afternoon in late March, not an issue earlier in the season. The upper slopes were always good. We had some magical runs on the tree lined pistes.

We have skied the Fageralm and St Johan in Pongau on the pass, and enjoyed these as well.

Plenty of on piste restaurants/bars with good food and great views.

We have visited several times.

Not that well known given it has hosted the Ski World Cup and major competitions, many times.
The resort itself had lots of lifts that took us all over the mountains, however the runs themselves were not that long in Schladming itself.

Have been going to Schladming since 2017, beautiful runs and amazing facilities, bars on every run. The village is so lovely and lots of quality places to eat and drink

Really good resort with four different mountains accessible as well as the glacier included in the lift pass. Very friendly resort as well been going back for a lot of years

Great location, good options for beginners to intermediate/ more experienced skiiers. Lots of bars and restaurants. Only thing is that the town is quite small and we couldn’t get a table on Fri Eve, so ended up with a takeaway pizza, so definitely book in advance! Luckily our apartment was great so could make food. Would go back again!

Amazing resort, I have been here multiple times and just love it, easy buses between mountains and lots of groomed slopes that you will never get bored of.
Lifts are efficient and never too busy!! I cannot rave about this resort enough.
Options to toboggan too if you want a break from skiing.

Been going to this resort for years and has never let us down. The town has everything needed from apres to quieter bars and restraunts as well as multiple supermarkets in close proximity. I also highly recommend the bakeries as well as they are fantastic

We return every January for quiet slopes and excellent variety of skiing. Only 3 weeks til our next visit

Stayed at the Royer Sporthotel. Quite a place. Biggest indoor pool of any hotel I've stayed in. Excellent spa- 2 different temperature dry saunas, infrared sauna and steam bath. Had the half board option. Full breakfast buffet with omelet bar and for course supper every night. Food was excellent. Had the four area pass. You can ski or bus free to each area. Extremely modern lift network. Grooming is excellent. Many great local restaurant options on mountain.

Schladming has a very beautiful, some of the slope are surrounded by trees. Wide range of slopes. Family friendly. The austrian spas are always high standard and the afterski is amazing!! I have been there twice, soon three times - and can totally recommend this destination.

We had a cracking trip here, enjoyed the superb facilities, and life off the slopes was very good too.

Me and my family have been to this ski resort twice and we absolutely love it here! There is a wide range of runs for all abilities. I particularly love the option to ski through the trees on their blue runs, its so pretty. I would definitely recommend this resort, and I cant wait to come back! They also have a bus shuttle service to Hochwurzen, which is free during the day for people with ski passes!

Brilliant resort with fantastic lift system. Well groomed slopes and variety across 4 mountains. Great atmosphere and service in town and on the slopes. Terrain to suit everybody.

Schaldming is one of my all time favourite resorts in Europe! It has it all - beautiful scenery, loads of off-piste, Snowy forest run, slopes off in every direction and you can ski an epic journey across the 4 mountains from Ramsau to Haus Em Enstall. As well as this, you will find secluded little igloo vars dotted around the mountain, which are buzzing inside! Friendly vibe, everyone is here for a great time. Not too crowded either ! It's a best kept secret!

Great slopes, Great Apre Ski, Great food, cant complain at all, would go again;I was there in winter 2023/24 and the only thing I was a bit sad about was the lack of snow in the town but thats something that we should get used to.

Beautiful resort! Plenty of choice when its comes to runs. Slopes are well maintained, I went late March 2024 and it started to get quite slushy in the afternoons but slopes wed back to beautiful skiing condition by the next morning. Expensive location but thats what comes with skiing in Austria.
