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.

Solden was a great place to ski. Good apres ski, advanced skiing and so many great restaurants!
The hotels are incredible and service was always friendly. We used the bergland for its spa facilities and I have to say this was the best spa Ive ever been to.

The resort was awesome. Plenty of run on the slopes and food and drink where ever you went was amazing too.
The James Bond restaurant was epic too and drinking martinis on the terrace was epic too

An excellent result with very good facilities and easy access to all of the terrain. The on mountain restaurants are great value for money with very good food and the whole area is very well organised. The towns have enough going on to get your occupied in the evening But nothing is overpriced.

Superb snow sure resort, quite a trek unless you can fly to Innsbruck (where the transfer time is quick) Plenty of options to ski high up, also free but to Obergurgl is recommended and included in the lift pass. Loads of great restaurants, booking not usually possible but they are pretty good at fitting you in. As with most Austrian resorts the lifts are excellent. Apres good, but not right up there with Ishgl or St Anton. Town isn't as pretty as some, but lots of Shops, Bars etc. Have been 3 times and would happily return.

Went solden and obergurgl last year and loved it! Lots of choice for runs!
We were late season, so by the end of the day the lower runs were mogely and slushy but the runs were well managed considering

Solden has something for everyone and has a vast area including the Gurgls on the wider pass. Long wide runs and high altitude mean great conditions. It is more expensive than other Austrian resorts for drinks etc. Bars and restaurants were excellent

Great resort with plenty for all abilities. Very efficient lift system to get up the mountain quickly. 007 Elements well worth a visit for any James Bond fan and be sure to go up into the Elements bar afterwards for the views and a martini - shaken not stirred!
Huge range of slopes for everyone, beginner slopes can get busy at peak with corresponding lift queues but these move quickly and dont spoil anyones day.

Its a very good place i recommend to many people who do not know how to ski or snowboard as i learning in one of the best resorts or decently good resorts you can learn how to ski in a single day like i did.

The food was decent too, got to meet new people too, whom i partied with when there was a snow storm. Local town is also great as well

The snow quality and guarantee to ski due to the its height is exceptional. The ease of the lift system is superb. The access to the slopes from the village is very accessible from the excellent range of accommodation to fit most budgets.
Its a hidden gem!

Having both summer and winter vacationed in Soelden I can say its one of my favourite places in the alps. Amazing lift system, great restaurants and apres ski, lots to do off the slopes including the excellent 007 museum. People are friendly, its easy to get to and theres great hotels and apartments. Off piste is excellent. In summer it has great road and mountain biking plus hiking and loads more.

Great resort! I went with a group of friends, all of us on different ski and snowboarding levels and we all enjoyed trying different slopes through the weekend. The glacier views and pistes are stunning, and it wasnt crowded at all in mid December. Great apres-ski options, and very close to Aqua Dome for a relaxing soak.

Fantastic infrastructure, great lift system.
Great links across the 2 glaciers.
Skiied too hard on a couple of days to use the runs into town.

First time in nearly 40 years of skiing that we lost a morning due to TOO MUCH SNOW!

Great fun for a weekend, decent range of terrain, fast lifts and lively apres. Possibly a bit seedy if you come with kids, and steep runs back into resort for less confident skiers.

Sölden has pretty much everything most people will want from a holiday and I don't know why more Brits like me haven't discovered the resort. There is plenty of night life and great high altitude skiing and lower runs between the trees. Also the lift pass covers Obergurgl so you can enjoy more high altitude skiing or even Hoch Oetz so the is more tree lined skiing for cloudy days. In resort it lack the charm but there is a big high street with many different types of bars, many with live music.

Apres and family friendly resort. Excellent connectivity via the two main bubbles going up to the two glaciers. Very snow sure, first week of December has been ace. Plenty of runs for a few days, and few bus to Ober Gurgl to mix the experience up- only 20 minutes by bus.
Great connectivity to Innsbruck and Munich.
