 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi
I am skiing in Westendorf from 14th March. We would really like to try the Strief in Kitzbuhel - but will have 3 kids in ski school. Is it possible to leave westendorf at 10am, ski to Kitzbuhel, Ski the Strief and ski back to westendorf by 3pm?
Or are we better driving over to Kitzbuhel and skiing there for a few hours?

Top of Streif is some 8 lifts (might be 1,2 more or less) away from Westendorf, and it takes less lifts to get back. I have no idea how you are skiing, but for me personally, question would be if I could get to bottom of Streif and back before 12:00 not before 15:00, if I would start at 10am  So I think you could easily make it in 5 hours to Kitzbuehel and back.

If you are short of time take the bus from the bottom of Kiwest to the Fleckalmbahn rather than Pengelstein (a few stops further on the same bus) That takes you much closer to the Streif. If you run out of time there are skibuses back and the train is free in ski gear. there are buses back from Hahnenkamm station to Westendorf (about 40mins) if you want to stay longer in Kitz. timetables here http://www.skiwelt.at/en/skiwelt-skibusfahrplaene.html from my reading you could bus back at 1405 and be back about 1445.
that said i think you can ski it without too much rush. Shortest route I think is lifts 110, 117, 119 in Westendorf then bus to D5/D3 (Penglestein) D1, C4 and ski to Streif from there.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

After C4 you'll also want to use the Märchenwald magic carpet, A6, if you want to begin at the Starthaus and ski the Mausefalle. You should have enough time - it takes less than two minutes to ski the Streif (maybe a little longer with moguls  ).
