Wildschonau - season pass?
Started by User in Austria, 27 Replies
OK, were you to buy a 14 day pass, t'would cost 242 Euros. OTOH, a season pass costs just 290 Euros.

When more info comes to the fore, you may find there are a few sheckels off for advance purchase.
Your 520 Euro KitzAllStar is for advance purchase, otherwise is 585 Euros.

I love naughty ideas, Emma. Here's a wee story:
We all have our seasons passes chipped into our swatches. So, my ski buddy Mel had inadvertantly worn his wife's watch, when going out skiing. Sure enough, when entering the gondola turnstile, there was a knock on the lift man's window ~ "Margaret!" he said to Mel!
That was the moment we realised that when you operate the machine, your photo comes up on a screen inside the lift cabin.......

Will look up the bergbahn later today.As a guide, I paid 217 for my season pass last year, and 211 the year before. This is a discounted senior rate, so maybe this years adult season pass may be about 280/300.....
Whenever they cotton on that the seniors do much more skiing than the normals, we may be in for a big senior price hike!

Will be just up the road in Scheffau, Johnny, though I might get a pass-out one evening. Will be there last week in Jan, though.

On a serious note, 'N' is a nice place. During the day. In the evening however, it's a completely different story because everyone seems to go to bed at 8pm and 'N' becomes a ghost town. Unless Dave's in town, that is.

Steady, Coop, from where I'm standing, all the ladies are young, and even if they weren't, I'd tell them they were!
Dunno where you were looking after 8.00pm.... :wink:

I had a look at your www thingy :p The runs look nice! You have nice form too!


Just watch out for old geezers in red jackets bombing the runs.

Was wondering who you might mean, Trencher, then I realised it must be all those old Schileurers I ski with. Load of old codgers. Need to find a younger group!

Where do you fly from? Can you get a low cost flight to the Alps?
