Visited resort for 3 years Despite poor snow 2006 still managed a great sking holiday. Villages are small and compact which allows you to experience the real Tyrol...Great Ski Schools, efficient lift sysyem and family friendly apres ski. I would recommend this resort to beginners and intermediate skiers and snowboarders. Strictly no posers.....

One of the best beginner ski areas in Austria – for the terrain and the number of those in the same boat. Intermediate skiing is ok but better intermediates will soon cover the area. Very little for the better skiers and snowboarders.

Attractive resorts in the valley and a good alpine spirit, the villages are well geared for tourists.

Relaxed atmosphere and easy skiing in compact areas all below the tree line – ideal family ski holiday terrain.

Nothing too wild but Niederau offers a good few bars by the slopes and the atmosphere tends to be pretty jolly.
