Maria Alm ???

Hi,

Although I am having a week skking with my family I am going on a four day blast with five lads to Maria Alm. One of the guys has a time share swop which we are utilising. However I know absolutely nothing about this resort ! Is there a good choice of blues ? (I am a lazy skier)! Accessabilty ? Apres Ski etc ? Anyone ???

Am afraid I've never been or even really heard of it but have a look here for more info:

Again dont know of it myself, but like most places in Austria they have had a good base layer come down in last 10 days or so. Below is the latest report for Maria Alm posted today.

Maria Alm 75cm Powder Snow Forecast Further snow due 11/Dec.

Maria Alm is a great litle resort. Very pretty lots of tree skiing and loads of blues and reds.
Its about 1hr max drive from Salzburg.Just get to Saalfelden and turn left at the main roundabout and go up the hill for about 10 mins.
Apres ski ok, but nothing riotous!
Snow is normally really good.
They are expecting about another 1m in the next few days.(reliable info from Lofer, about 25 kms away.)
Enjoy!!

I am also going to Maria Alm in January, I have only heard good things about it but let me know if you hear anything! :D

It gets a good write up in WTSS, although the skiing appears to be spread out over a wide area, and they say a car is essential to get about.
