OBERTRAUN - KRIPPENSTEIN SKI HOLIDAYS

One of the few elite centres of back-country, off-piste extreme skiing in the Alps. The Krippenstein Freeride Arena has few lifts, limited on-piste skiing and little celebrity about it. But for serious skiers and snowboarders then the Krippenstein Freeride Arena has to be on the very short list of mountains to visit in the Alps. Guides are absolutely essential away from the pistes but the very steep and varied terrain, regular banks of powder and the quality of the alpinists that inhabit this mountain outpost make it amongst the few truly hardcore ski areas in the Alps. The area slightly favours the skier as there are some lengthy traverses before the walls of powder. The resort of Obertraun accesses this hardcore gem.
