Top-rated ski resort reviews

Zell am see is a beautiful spot with gentle skiing - perfect for older skiers like us and very good for families with young children! There is just enough for the kids to learn in safe conditions! You can even ski on the glacier in nearby Kaprun. although we never have. Apres-ski was quieter than we expected but this suits us just fine.

Its a very extensive resort including the Penken, Horberg, Rastkogel and Eggalm areas. The runs are mostly red with a few challenging blacks and would suit all levels of intermediate skier. Mayrhofen town is low and the skiing is accessed by a gondola from the centre of the town, expect queues up in the morning and down in the evening. Lift equipment is modern and efficient.

The snow is usually perfect in Hauser Kaibling / 4-Berge-Skischaukel. The lift system is first class for the whole area. You would have to ski very fast to get from Haus to Reiteralm and back in one day. Some steep red and black runs are testing over in Schladming whilst the skiing at Haus is more gentle for less able skiers. Loads of mountain huts and restaurants to choose from at lunchtime.
