Latest ski resort reviews

First of all I have to say I LOVE Kirchberg, but it might be good to highlight some of it\'s downsides. The biggest problem is that the Kirchberg-Kizbuhel-Pass Thurn skiarea does not provide many challenging slopes. The majority of the slopes are easy reds. Furthermore, you might end up with the feeling that you spend most of the time in the lifts. The lifts are a bit slow compared to other resorts like Ischgl or Sankt Anton. Because Kirchberg is popular with locals and short-stay…

Val Thorens is a great destination for young people travelling in groups. It lacks charm and tranquility though. But if you like to ski / snowboard and party till you ***, Val Thorens is the place to be. The ski arena is massive. Each of the 3 valleys is different, and offers something for everyone: cruising slopes, tree-lined slopes, creepy blacks, off-piste slopes etc. This is definitely not a familie resort or a resort for beginners.

The slopes in Filzmoos are superb for families, intermediate skiers and begginers. With no Black runs it means that the whole mountain is a joy to explore. The pistes are wide yet varied and were kept in great condition. One of the high points are the mountain top cafes. They are traditional wood, and the staff are excellent. For those who enjoy an elevenses of gluwein or hot chocolate, and lunch of cracking goulash, this is the resort to go to. Cant wait to go back!
