I was just having a look for some interactive piste maps when I came across this:
http://www.kitzalps.com/en/kitzbueheler-alpen-allstarcard.html

apparantley it covers

Kitzbühel
SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser-Brixental
ski region Schneewinkel
Hochtal Wildschönau
Alpbachtal
Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang
Zell am See-Kaprun (incl. glacier Kitzsteinhorn 3,203 m)

It had me curious and I have only briefly skimmed it, but from the looks of it you can get 6 days skiing in all these areas on this pass for £204 (well euros, but whats the difference!) I paid £150 for my 6 day pass just for the wildschonau area.

Just thought I would bring it to your attention. apologies if there is a clause, like I say, I only skimmed reading it

Thanks Karen,
I've had a look at it and I don't think there are any catches. Here is a map of the areas covered:
http://www.skimap.kitzalps.com/default.asp?Lang=en

It says it covers 1,081 Km of piste. A 6 day adult ticket costs 204 euros. An advance season ticket bought before 4/12/08 would have cost only 497-00 euros, but from then on costs 555-00 euros.

It also gives a breakdown of the individual costs of the lift passes for the different areas, which is also interesting.

Kitzbuhel = 187
Skiwelt = 181-50
St Johann = 173
Wildshonau = 150-40
Alpbach = 151-50
? spelling Steinplatte Waldring = 173
Skicircus Saalbach = 195-50
Zell am See - Kaprun = 192-00

It includes the free shuttle buses for each area, but I don't suppose you can get from one area to the next free of charge. There may be a bus, or else you'd have to have a car. It doesn't say.

Apparently there is an 8-seater monocable gondola Ki-West connecting the ski areas Kitzbuhel and Westendorf which can only be used by holders of this card.

So, basically, if you can get around, and you were going to buy the Zell am See one, for example, you might as well buy this one. And if you were planning on going several times you could get the season pass and stay somewhere different each time.
