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 :-)

There are two things wrong with Austrian skiing

For me there are two things that slightly spoil the Austrian skiing experience

1. Early morning church bells

The beds are fine and usually good quality. I can see there could be a problem for those not fully confident in their own sexuality.

Agreed about the smoking; this was quite an issue for our party

I was on a course and the guy sharing my room moved his mattress to the floor, rather than sleep next to another man.

In the morning I woke to heavy breathing. The type of heavy breathing you really don't want to wake up to.

After 10 minutes I plucked up the courage to "wake up suddenly".

He was doing hatha yoga.

Thank god.

O dear. I wondered how long this thread would last before the usual French-knocking started. Not long, as it turned out. Sad How drearily predictable.

At least austrian twins are adjacent for snuggling with your beloved (if that's who you're sharing with!). My boyfriend and I had a rather unromantic holiday in Finland where all the beds are singles and opposite sides of the hotel room! Mind you at least all the music in Finland was metal, not sure how much I'll enjoy the cheese-tastic austrian musical offerings when I go on saturday!

Your brother? I once ended up in a bed in Sterzing (Vipiteno) with a complete stranger. It was a single mattress double bed. I spent the night dreaming of Austrian double beds!
Positive aspect; by the end of the night I was sure I am not, and never will be, gay!

Smoking in bars and restaurants is the only thing that bothers me. But not enough to put me off the whole Austrian experience and most places have a non-smoking room.

I don't have a problem with Austrian twin beds, I only sleep on one side anyway.

Here in Austria at the moment, beds are fine it's the single quilts falling off are a nuisance! Smoking much much better than previous years, Après is the best here, cheesy music, Jaegermeister get on..... snowHead
Oh and it has to be said nowhere else beats the Austrian mountain huts for good food! And value!

If you were doing it right you would be listening to them from the top of the hill.

Not enough challenging terrain outside of the Allberg but other than that nothing a great place to ski and great value.

Stood in the tent at the bottom of the home run at Scheffau no idea of the name, but near the gondola, there's only one. Bar bouncing, attractive girls serving, Austrians and Germans dancing on the bar, singing patriotic songs, shirts off, downing shots, I would struck by the thought that apart from the Austrians and Germans, you could have been on a night out in Burnley.

You got that right...especially the value Very Happy

I've just been accused of knocking the French,and I'll gladly put my hand up....but only on the mountain.Down in the flat lands I find them delightfull,and have enjoyed many a happy summer break there,and will continue to do so.But its often a very different story up on the hill.Poor and indifferent service,poor quality of food and scant regard for the customer(unless they happen to be French) Sad And I'm easily pleased...more demanding customers probably have a very poor experience.
France is not the only country that has mountains,and snow;though it will probably take another decade before they wake up to that rolling eyes
No doubt,I will ski in France in the future....but it will be second choice.

Back on track.....to like..
