Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi all, couldn't find too much on here about Schladming so here's a new post.
Just after some info, apres, food, pistes etc.
apart from Hohenhaus are there any other apres bars that play proper "Austro-pop"?
Any huts have any specialties worth checking out?
Is the Glacier worth a trip?
anything else to check out?
Cheers! Looking forward to it!

@Disaster, I have no idea about après but I do like the Schafalm (sheep hut with real sheep inside!) on Planai.
The glacier is a bit of a mission. You basically have to drive up beyond Ramsau to get the cable car up there. There are three short drag lifts up there and a chairlift which is often closed. Not much skiing, but stunning views.

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

@Disaster,
Glacier can be cold and bleak. Only worth visiting on a bluebird day (when it is spectacular) but then probably better to ski elsewhere.
Piste 10/11 (Mitterhaus) is very nice. Very wide and superb if good corduroy.
Pistes go quiet at midday. Then busy after 13:30 ish.
Lifts from the valley start spinning at 08:15.
Traditional food: Fastenburg hut.
Fast self service: Kessleralm, Hochwurzenhutte, Marchenwiesenhutte
Not fussed on Austro-pop so can't help there.

My tip is don't stay anywhere near the two churches near the Kirchenwirt hotel, the have a ridiculous bell ring off starting at about 5.30 every morning for what seems like an hour.

@Disaster, The Hopsi express mini funicular is for anybody to use not just ski schools. Useful if you have an extended late lunch at the Marchenwiesenhutte and prefer to download from the top station.

@Disaster Loads of people in the Ski Amade who know that part better than I but I'll give you one place to definitely avoid. "Andi's Schrimbar" at the Ritteralm Base Station. Looks tempting if you're on a traverse, but the food is very poor and the service, quite possibly the only place in Austria where it is on French levels. Ski on my friend.

Luckily I like my food at altitude. Being an umbrella/goldfish bowl type bar, looks ok for a quick beer towards the end of the day!
