A perfect resort, with a good mix of slopes for mainly beginners, and intermediates. The three ski areas of i)Kitzsteinhorn with the glacier skiing above Kaprun, ii) The Maisikogel where you can ski down into the centre of Kaprun, iii) The Schmittenhohe above Zell am See with fantastic views over the lake at Zell am See and beyond. There is further skiing in Saalbach and Hinterglemm in the next valley along, and the Gastein Valley is only half a hour away by car. Good and short…

Flaine is an ugly resort, but if you're a keen skier this is more than made up for by the convenience of access to the slopes. The resort has plenty of blue and red runs and is best suited to intermediates. We were in the Cassiopee apartment building which is in a good location in Flaine Forum, being a few minutes from the lifts and also close to the bars, restaurants and shops. The downside is that it can be noisy at night and the ski storage room has no lock, anyone could walk in off…

Everything is just right in Saalbach Hinterglemm: modern ski lifts, well-prepared slopes - super skiing -, the best apres ski in the Alps. It is just perfect! Especially the Hinterglemm part. Great to be able to ski out and back to our hotel - what a treat for the end of the day.
