Staying at Hotel Lohmann.

Hi,
Have just booked a trip to Obergurgl for self and wife. Would appreciate any advice/tips on the resort etc from anyone who has skied there
In recent times. We are experienced intermediate skiers.
Thanks

Thanks Tony and again to msej. I have to say that its tempting to return to Switzerland despite the costs. So we may well push the boat out this year and do another trip there, particularly if the conditions on piste are looking good.

Thanks to both of those replies--exactly the sort of detail we have been looking for. Just looked up the date we were last in Zermatt, March 2008 so quite a difference in ex rate.

Hello,
Wife and self thinking of skiing in Switzerland (maybe Zermatt or Wengen but could be elsewhere). Have not skied there for 7/8 years and realise due to exchange rate etc its relatively expensive these days.(as already confirmed by quite a few contributors to the forum!)
However we would appreciate advice or comments on basic costs (Coffee, meals on mountain, beer, wine etc etc) from people who have skied there recently. -)

Hi, Thanks for that.
Will certainly do the White Ring conditions permitting.
Had never previously heard of it before reading an article in the press last Sunday.[/url]http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/snowandski/features/11204820/Lech-Zurs-and-St-Anton-the-noisy-neighbours-of-skiing.html

Thanks guys. Looking forward to first Christmas ski for 15 years!

Just booked a week in Lech at Xmas. Skied Austria plenty but 1st time there.
Would appreciate advice/comments on the mountain/village etc from anyone who has skied there in recent years.
Self & wife experienced intermediates and will not be too interested in the nightlife. :)
