Took my children. Snow was still very good. They enjoyed the ski school enormously, and seemed to progress quite rapidly for the 3 days that they had tuition. Auystria generally tends in my opinion to suit families particularly well, and Obertauern with a wealth of on mountain huts and resturants made skiing easy and enjoyable. The Ski terrain in obertauern is easy to navigate, and encourages children to prgess and be adventurous in relative safety. The ski rentals shops were both professional and courtious, the equipment available to rent was excellent, latest equipment, with a variety of different manufactures & types available.

OBERTAUERN FAMILY SKI HOLIDAYS

The ski terrain in Obertauern is ideal for the family ski holiday. The terrain is almost all classified blue or red and there is virtually nothing in the way of advanced skiing (on piste at least). Obertauern boasts good to the ski lifts from much of the accommodation. There are numerous ski lifts leaving Obertauern in a variety of locations. Similarly the ski pistes that run into the village tend to traverse sections of Obertauern meaning that much of the accommodation can be closely accessed at the end of the day.

OBERTAUERN FAMILY SKI INFORMATION

Whilst the ski terrain and access to and from the skiing and lifts from much of the accommodation in Obertauern is impressive, the weather can be a factor that affects the family ski holiday. Obertauern skiing can be bleak in poor weather and with no skiing beneath the tree-line then navigation can be difficult. The high altitude and the exposed nature the Tauern pass (the location of Obertauern) can make for some windy and unforgiving conditions. Obertauern has an impressive sports centre and the impressive hotels in the village boast a good range of amenities.
