Ischgl im Paznauntal reviews

Ischgl! I love it, skiing is great. Snowboarding is even better. You can choose various ski routes, some of them are very easy to handle and some them are a pain in the a... . Overall the ski resort is known for its apres ski, you finish skiing about 4 pm, take the last descent and here you are in the middle of a wild party. A bunch of people gathered around the Kuhstall which means cow stable, here you have one or two or even more Fagertee, which is tea and lots of Stroh rum, 80° proof. And now you are in the right party mood, you start dancing, talking to strangers about your fabulous jumps, and you might end up meeting your dream girl. The rest explains itself. The motto of Ischgl this wi

Went to Ischgl last February on my fourth time and enjoyed it a lot. Prices have gone up a lot !!! and where did all those people come from ??? To my surprise the Sammnau slopes were better looked after than on the Ischgl side - Strange discovery. Even though I m an expert skier and love the black runs on the Ischgl side, I preferred to ski on the Sammnau slopes this time.

Ischgl is an excellent snowsecure skiresort with a very lively après ski. It's perfect for a vacation with friends, but not for families with (little) kids.

There's no two ways about it - Ischgl is just absolutely fantastically brilliant. Amazing ski area, fast and efficient lift system, no queues at all, great food and drink up the mountain (not on the Swiss side tho - expensive). And the apres-ski and night life, my friends... Legendary. Out of this world. Why anyone would ever go skiing in France is utterly beyond me - not a clue, those Frenchies. At the end of the day, come down on the Fimba side of town and go to the Schatzi Bar - "Apres Ski mit Go-Go-Girls". It is MAD in there! Indoor fireworks, girls dancing on platforms, great tunes... Everyone has a fabulous time. In the evenings, head for Pacha. Brilliant. The bottom line is,
