Poster: A snowHead
|
We have never used The Bus when on holiday because we have always stayed in a resort and walked to the Gondola station. this time we are staying in Westendorf. As we like to stick to the blues we are planning a few 'day trips', one going to Scheffau and another to Kirchberg.
The day we go to Scheffau plan on Skiing/gondola over but maybe get ski bus back to Westendorf. Just wondering are buses pretty frequent and are the absolute bedlam.
Again I think I have worked out the route to Kirchberg via KiWest. Just wondering is it possible to get bus back to Westendorf or should we ski back again.
Thank you, starting to get excited for this trip.

Not sure if you are near a train station, but trains in the locality free, for skiers (if you wanted to venture over to St Johann, Kithz.. etc)

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@2waterford, the ski buses are pretty good in SkiWelt as I recall. I stayed in Scheffau and got the bus back from the lifts a couple of times and once back from Soll. I've used the bus between Aschau and Ki-West too, no problems.

Do you mean you want to get the ski bus back to Westendorf from Scheffau? If so then I don't believe there is any such bus.
Sorry if I've mis-understood.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@Tim M, that's correct, the ski bus in Westendorf only connects with Brixental, you would have to ski to and from Scheffau. The ski bus in Scheffau connects the lift with the village but there's also a Postbus which connects with Soll and Ellmau.

As far as aware no skibus from Scheffau. Also not direct from Ki West back to Westendorf - from Ki West you need to change in the middle of Kirchberg - cannot remember the name of the hotel the bus stop is outside but it is by the roundabout in the middle of town and there is c hourly bus in early evening back to Westendorf. The chap/pess at the Ki West ticket office will tell you that you need a taxi so don't ask him how to get back just get the bus back into Kirchberg and find the main bus stop. It is free in high season to those dressed in ski kit and I suppose carrying ski gear. The option is to get the bus (same one) beyond Kirchberg at the (someone tell me whether it is the Fleckalmbahn or the Maierlbahn)) lift station on the Kitzbuhel side of Kirchberg - an altogether easier experience.
Remember you will need the allstar pass to ski Kitzbuhel.
The Westendorf train station is a longish way from the village in skiboots uphill - not recommended - the bust stop if you do try the train is about 200 metres on the right hand side as you leave the station on the main road side outside a small gasthof. If you want a taxi take the number with you as they did not have any cards stuck up in the station the last time I was there.
