What Skiers Say About Sölden

Sölden attracts predominantly intermediate to advanced skiers and snowboarders seeking reliable snow conditions and extensive terrain. Reviewers consistently highlight the glacier access, long wide runs, modern lift infrastructure, and vibrant après-ski scene. The resort draws mixed-ability groups and those looking for high-altitude skiing with good snow coverage throughout the season. Common criticisms include crowding during peak periods, expensive lift passes relative to terrain size, and challenging home runs in warm conditions. Several users note the resort feels less traditionally Austrian and more commercialised than comparable destinations.

I loved this resort it was so beautiful one of the best absolutely amazing!! Was there for my birthday last year and took in The James Bond experience which was insane, the car / bike museum was so great totally unexpected. The slopes outstanding didn't want the days to end have done a few ski resorts in Austria now and Solden has been my favorite and i can't wait to go back again in a few weeks. Absolute beauty

Sölden is a great resort in winter and spring too thanks to its glaciers. The lift system is modern and efficient and queues are rare even in peak weeks. There is also a good free ski bus service which links the two main gondolas, as well as accommodation off the main streets. A regular bus takes you to Hochgurgl and Obergurgl too.The Pistes in Sölden are well maintained and fall into three main areas which are well linked. The views from the highest peaks are wonderful and a visit to the glaciers, all linked by the lift system is a must. The James Bond experience is worth a visit too, as is a sleging run down from Gaislach mid-station. There are many mountain restaurants and huts for all. The cafetiere style restaurants serve tasty options and are reasonably speedy if you don't want to stop too long. These include restaurants at Giggioch and Gaislach (where you charge everything to your ski pass and pay at the end), as well as both glaciers. There are also many smaller huts dotted around with their own tasty menus. Self catering is easy with several supermarkets in town and there are obviously many restaurants and bars in the town itself. The self-catering apartments are large, warm and comfy usually with a bread service and welcoming host. I have experience of three ski schools, from child group lessons to adult private lessons and free ride training. All have been excellent and we have rebooked year on year.All in all it's a great resort for anyone but particularly good intermediate skiers.

A wonderful resort for skiers and snowboarders alike. Many long and wide runs for people of all abilities to enjoy and get away from it all on. Amazing experiences from the glaciers at high altitude all the way down to the village in one single run with multiple zones and terrains is spectacular. The 007 restaurant at the peak is a must-do too. Everyone should visit soelden at least once!

Solder is a beautiful place to visit , the town is stunning and the mountains are incredible .
The 007 elements dining experience was divine and would 100 percent do it again . I didnt get to ski as much of the mountains as I would have liked to due to there being a beginner skiing with us so we stuck tonalities same runs . Cant wait to go back and do it all again but bigger

Lovely experience snolden, the views whilst skiing/snowboarding at the top of the mountain were absolutely breathtaking, the athmosphere and energy from the staff and other tourists was out of this world. I would definitely recommended Snolden to others as it was one of the most unbelievable experiences of my life

We had a great time at Sölden, the snow was perfect and our week filled with sunshine. I have been here before when it was cloudy and icy but the runs are still manageable. The staff in most huts are friendly. Only downside were other holiday makers being easily irritated and rude. But you can choose if you spend your energy getting annoyed by that too or if you just focus on having a good time skiing! :)

Sölden is an awesome place to go skiing. The view from the 007 elements is breathtaking. Especially at the beginning of the season you can find great powder on the tiefenbach glacier. While holidays it can be super busy. The food in the rotkogel restaurant is excellent, I can highly recommend the Kaiserschmarrn. Its just delicious!
