Season ends for small and low villages are not determined by the village, but collectively, and effectively, by the T/Os. They decide when to terminate the flights, or connections.

Auffach and Alpbach, which are both connected to Niederau continue for another week.

When I was here for my seasons, the season end was always mid-April, and I never went home leaving a green mountain, the runs were always complete. Accountants run the world!

Dave Mac - how do you get to Niederau from Munich? Didn't realise that N was so close to Munich....

Nevertheless, great skiing, although some home runs closed due to no snow and others got very slushy by about 1pm. Conditions stayed fairly good on the tops though. So hot I managed to come down with heat stroke one day. Have got a great suntan though (complete with Panda Eyes!).
Just counting the months to start of next season now, depression setting in already :(


Planning at least 2 trips for 2015 already.
Having had a week in January with no fresh snow, spring like conditions and then another week in March with almost tropical conditions, I dont feel I have enjoyed this season at all. Ok we skied as much as we could, but its the first year I can remember really feeling let down.

Roll on 2014/15

Dobby: you can get a train direct to Worgl (in Austria), then a 3 euro bus ride to Niederau, from right opposite the train station. Dead easy.

Must say I had a fantastic season. With girlfriend in jan with tonnes of snow and march with excellent weather and a great mixed group.

Loved 2014, bring on 2015 :)
