Seefeld or Passe Tonale?

Mon, 14 Feb 2011 14:23:09 GMT

Hi I was going to book Passo Tonale but Crystal recommended Austria and Seefeld. Said the PT didn't have that many Brits that went (good or bad?) and thought that Seefeld was more appropriate. I'm a beginner. Just wonder if anyone has any experiences of Seefeld and what the snow is like?

Many many thanks in advance :D

Have not skied Seefeld but I have skied PT, which is a great resort for a beginner it is snow sure and reasonable priced for a ski resort.
Hotels seem fine, not as scenic as Seefeld and it can be very cold but if your on a budget it should fit the bill, Strange why they offered you Seefeld but TO's only do things to benefit them selfs.

My son has been to PT twice with his school and loves it. He progressed from a novice to quite a useful skier there.
What he likes is that he cannot get lost, all runs get back to the resort.
He likes the locals, says that ski school and restaurant people are very friendly.
Hope this is useful info.

Hi guys
Thanks for you're help. I actually booked Seefeld as I can fly from my local airport (100 miles less travelling), flight times were far better and transfer is only half an hour. Not sure if snow will be as good but its 12 days away so fingers crossed. PT looked good for the snow but all the above made the difference. Thanks again. Here's looking forward to it soooooo much!

Thanks OldAndy I definately will! One question if you don't mind me asking, I' trying to work out if the snow conditions in Seefeld are okay at the moment? I see that there is a few cm due to fall in a few days but not sure what that means in condition terms? Thanks

I always have to look twice, as first glance always looks like Sellafield to me :mrgreen:

And ADH sounds like a syndrome and VDI like a nasty disease.....
