The power of w-o-m marketing: I've just ordered two: one blue one pink. Thanks for the recommendation ! |

What a great video ! As Boney M put it: "oh those Russians" !

Thanks for the info Tony; I'll certainly be nipping out earlier in the mornings to catch the bus this Jan from N to Auffach. I was particularly interested that if the runs are "easier" they might suit my family more too; question though, does the Red ski school go there, as I like them, and my nearest-and-dearest certainly do ! I also notice from the new map that with the connection to Alpbach, there are plenty of blue runs available for them too.

I can certainly vouch for those ! Red ski school last year put me into the "top" group and we were taken down the black from Lanerkoepfl most days with diversions off to those "gorges". Very , erm, exhilirating :) Interesting observations about Auffach, Dave. I must spend more time there this year. |

One well-known hotel in a very well-loved (and unloved) resort, has the sign over the breakfast bar: "please leave the dining room with a full stomach and empty hands!"

A friend of mine has been there a few times with family and loves it. Apparently some of the accommodation permits you to ski virtually into the lift to take you up to your appartment !

I love Niederau for all the reasons that have been mentioned already, but am aware of its size constraints. I suppose one slight disadvantage to James' suggestion of skiing several different areas (Skiwelt, Kitz, Mayrhofen etc) is the question of having to invest in several different lift passes, which would probably make a week or two's stay more expensive than sticking to one resort. But an interesting idea all the same.
