Mail for help.Help!!

Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Obertauern village layout

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
Hi Guys

Can anyone tell me which part of Obertauern village is the best part to stay for easy access to the lifts as there seems to be two separate areas; the village centre and one a bit further West?

I'll be there one my own, probably half board for 3 nights, 4 days in December. I'll like to have a beer after a long day on the slopes too

Or does it not really matter?

I was there just over 20 years ago and stayed at the Hotel Marietta, which IIRC had a decent location for both skiing and the town centre.

@Gaz_H, I find the whole place a bit bleak but if you're self-catering then nearer the Spar is a better option. For hotel stays the Eastern end is a bit more modern and has better Bars (IMHO). Both have similar lift access and there are two circuits that run Clockwise or Anti-Clockwise which any competant skier can knock off in a Morning. No real difference between lift access.

Most hotels are close to the slopes
We have used this hotel over the years

Usually great snow but exposed if it's stormy

@RedandWhiteFlachau, Never been but I get what you mean about Bleak. As we mentioned on that other thread its the only place open on the 11th Dec in that area - I would much rather and try Flachau but its not open Sad

I had a weekend there in January, we stayed in between the Spar and Intersport in 'Appartementhaus Christophorus'. The first lift of the day is a 1-minute walk behind the property, with plenty of bars & restaurants opposite.

We had a brilliant weekend, coinciding with the lifting of the Apres ban, so it was a little Bananas!!

The main village area on Romerstrasser works best for me Anywhere between the Romerhof to the spar, otherwise you star going too low. All have easy access to and from the slopes, and night life if you desire.
