So we are back home and feeling sad. First time taking the DC (13,10,9) skiing and the best holiday ever.
We went to Alpbach in Austria
pros
- gorgeous village- we stayed guesthouse jakober right in the center, it was clean and great value (870euro for the week for 2 big rooms for the 5 of us)
- ski school instructors were english- 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon- if you gave the kids money (6euro) the instructors kept them and took them to a mountain restaurant for lunch- the DC loved this and did it from the second day.
- every mountain hut and village bar was full of atmosphere and charm and everyone was friendly
- 45 mins from Innsbruck airport
- and best of all there were no lift queues.
cons
- bus to main ski area
- not many wide easy blue runs for beginners
I'm looking around to book for next year already. If you could tell me about your trip that would be great, it might even help me make up my mind where to go next...
Thank you
