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 :-)

I was thinking of the resorts on German side. What are they like? Oberstdorf? I'm under 25, so can't really rent a car. It's very expensive, so need to do public transport. That's why I'm thinking German resorts. They're easier to get to. But equally if anyone knows a cheap and quick way to get to Austrian resorts, please share. Thanks in advance.

I am guessing that is a ryanair served airport?

Oberstdorf area would be the nearest.
I would guess Garmisch-Partenkirchen would take just as long as St Anton.

My suggestion is to look at Flix buses & what route they do from the airport.
However chances are all roads will need to lead to Munich & Filx will get you there cheap.

@geoffers, I'm well versed in memmingen and Munich I've family in that part of Deutschland. Sometimes can be cheaper. Saturday's an early morning flight so skiing on the saturday is possible.
Feb half term were flying in to Nuremburg considerably cheaper flights, cheaper car hirer plus flight days/times give us 7 days skiing the way we work it, Longer drive in but that doesn't bother me

There are direct trains to Oberstdorf / Kleinwalsertal. Lermoos / Ehrwald and further on Garmisch are reasonably straightforward to get to by train. In the other direction getting to the Vorarlberg resorts even the Arlberg (St Anton, Lech) are reasonably easy via Lindau. Not sure Munich is really any more convenient if all you are looking for is a "ski resort", getting from the airport to ski areas involves multiple changes.

I have not been to the Kleinwalsertal but it does get positive reviews from those that have. Lermoos / Ehrwald used to have a fair number of brit visitors but they are pretty small. Not sure what sort of skiing level you are at so difficult to suggest. If beginner level then any of them would do, more experienced maybe not. Also take into account the social aspect, not much to do in these places. If you have any sort of skiing level you might be better off getting to St Anton, it is not cheap but I believe there is some hostel type accommodation.

@skier1980, Oberstdorf / Kleinwalsertal definitely worth a visit. Plenty there to keep you happy for a week. Main area is the Fellhorn/Kanzelwand, which spans Germany & Austria. For easiest access base yourself in Kleinwalsertal in Riezlern, or take the bus from Oberstdorf to Fellhorn. Kleinwalsertal has several areas which are not connected, but are served by bus. Main ones are Kanzelwand, Ifen and Walmendingerhorn, plus you have the Heuberg set of lifts at lower elevation, which almost connect Walmendingerhorn to Kanzelwand.... The Nebelhorn, directly in Oberstdorf is definitely worth a spending a day on if pounding moguls is your thing (they hold mogul competitions there), not recommended for beginners tho. Tons of off piste possibilities in all of the above areas...
Numerous diect trains from Memmingen to Oberstdorf

Thanks for all the replies. I'm flying into Memmingen, because it's a fraction of the cost. There is a direct train to Oberstdorf - just over an hour and not expensive. I just wanted confirmation that it was good resort. I like the sound of off-piste, moguls, etc

Thanks for all your help.

I'm a strong intermediate. I can ski blacks, moguls. I've been skiing since I was young but only 1 trip a year. How quie t? Really just want places to eat. I'll check out hostel in St. Anton, but seems difficult to get over border....I think I would go to lindau first.
