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 :-)

Hi Guys,

You probably get this type of question a lot, but I am looking for some advice as to a destination in Europe to ski this year. The last few years I have been skiing in the US and so my knowledge of the European resorts is out of date. Out of Ishgl, Lech and Zermatt, which would people choose.

For reference, I am intermediate/advance skiier. Skied for over 10 years including a season in Kitzbuhel.

Is scenery, nightlife or food most important? Price obviously not a killer!

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

If you like offpiste, go to Lech as the Arlberg rules.

Not been to any, but my research, says Zematt as thats where I'm going this February. One of the greats by all accounts, - we'll see!

ljsenn, I've been to all 3 and would certainly choose Lech. Great in it's own right and with St Anton 30 mins away (by cab/bus)

Zermatt possibly suffers from having it's various areas not linked, and is also well on the international tourist trail so gets full of punters. Ischgl suffers slightly from large numbers of German stag parties

I've been to none of them, but would certainly choose Lech on reputation. wink I can really, really, do without German stage parties.

ljsenn,
Been to all three several times, don't thnk any would dissapoint but Zermatt has become seriously pricey recently. Never been bothered by a German stag group but we actually stay just outside Ischgl as it's cheaper. Lech is probably my favourite out of the three for skiing excellent snow record reasonably quiet and some decent off piste.

If you're heading to Lech, try to stay in Oberlech if you can. Ski in ski out. Absolutely fantastic place and better than Ischgl in my experience.
