 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hello Folks,
A group of us heading to kitz on Jan 28th and were thinking of skiing over to Westendorf for a day.
Any tips on best way to get there and good areas to ski.
Thanks in advance.

Ski down to Skirast or Aschau (marked on piste map) and get the Postbus.

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

Get the bus (5 mins?) to the bottom of the Ki-West gondola, which is part of Westendorf. Plenty of great skiing in Westendorf, what are you looking for? The 111 is a nice run, although I preferred the old longer version with the bus back to the new shorter one with the gondola at the bottom. Some nice mellow offpiste variants to it too.

If you ski over via Aschau, you can have quite a wait for a postbus: I just missed one yesterday and had 40 minutes until the next one - made a good excuse for a lunch stop 
The buses between Skirast and KiWest seemed a lot more frequent - every 10 minutes IIRC.

As clarky999, said get the bus, one every 10 mins or so from the Pengelstein I car park to the KiWest lift. Good long red down to Brixen with a stop (Kandleralm) on the way!

Chick, Check this plot, should give you an idea:

Looks like I left the bottom of the Alpenrosebalm in Westendorf at 9:30am, and got onto the PendlestagI (so all the way down the KiWest+bus) at 10.36am. So call it an hour. But I was not hanging around, and you will be going much later in the day when the pistes may not quite be in such a flying condition.

An hour should give plenty of time from the Alpenrosenbahn, and the run under KiWest is ideal for fast skiing.
Just to note, the KiWest gondola IS part of Westendorf though.
