 Poster: A snowHead
|
The title says it, really. I’m in Innsbruck on those days, and given the current poor conditions and a forecast that doesn’t call for any considerable snowfall this week, where am I best off going?
The options as I see them:
Axamer Lizum: close to town, but only with limited operation. Normally it’d be my first choice, but is it worthwhile at the moment?
Kühtai: also close, and at a high elevation, but oddly it seems to be in very limited operation.
Stubai Glacier: the obvious choice, really. 90 min bus ride each way, but it’s at least about 50% open.
St. Anton: actually only 70 minutes by train (although timing in the morning could be better). Will it be better than the above three?
Sölden: about a 90 minute journey, but not as easy as getting to Stubai (multiple transfers). It seems like they have a lot of terrain open. Would it be worth the effort?
Am I forgetting anything?

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

Sadly no car, I'm afraid.

def recommend Stubai. would've thought that more than 50% will be open by the Christmas week. maybe you've done your research already but I wouldn't have thought the bus should take 90mins - is this the local bus time? have you checked to see if there is a special ski bus that does it quicker? if it takes 90mins it will be stopping at every point because it isn't that far.
