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 :-)

La Semnoz in Annecy was a nice surprise - tiny resort but great for a day out and the views are amazing. I think a day pass was like 12 euros...
Also La Clusaz and Grand Bornand is great , of course many would know them already...

Warth in Austria, with 11m of snow in an average season, it's the snowiest resort in the Alps, but still hardly known. Next year it will be linked by a new gondola into Lech-Zurs and the Arlberg which will expand the ski area from 68km to 340km

luigi, Great photos - specially Warth. On my list to visit soon.
Have you been in San Martino - part of Dolomiti Superski? I've seen photos somewhere and it looks nice as well.

luigi, Warth is the best suggestion yet (most of the others mentioned are fairly well kinown IMO)

I'm going to add Kals am Grossglockner - small but perfectly formed under Austria's highest mountain. Got about 5500 vertical, mostly north facing, with off piste that's all yours. Stay in the little hamlet of Grossdorf and the lift goes straight out of the village. Had a lightening visit there once and I'm going to make an effort to go back.

I assume he's taking skiing rather than parachuting. Laughing

Biggest vertical drop in the World in Chamonix with 2,807m

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:
1. How about Berwang in the Zugspitze arena? High resort with good snow record and lots of easy blue slopes. You can also ski the nearby resorts of Lermoos and Ehrwald. Think berwang used to be covered by Crystal a few years ago but not anymore

2. I Suppose you could also add the SKi amade resorts of Flachau, Wagrain and Zauchensee. None of these are covered by British tour ops although you can now go to Alpendorf nearby.

3. An lastly the Alta Pusteria region of the Dolomites. Around 77km of slopes accessible from the resorts of San Candido, Sesto and Moos. And if you have a car, Kronplatz is nearby

they get plenty of coverage on Snowheads, but then the collective experience of SHs goes a lot wider than the TOs do.

Kreischberg (Austria) is a lovely little resort. No Brits there, amazing piste grooming considering its size (only 30km of pistes) and some great runs. Lacks apres but is incredibly reasonably-priced. It's also near enough to some bigger resorts for days out (Turracher and Obertauern). Worth a go for a cheap DIY break.

Had a damn good day at the Zwolferhorn.

so did I, but it was in August in about 1962. We walked up with an Austrian friend and stopped for lunch at the most perfect "Heidi's Grandfather" chalet, where we were given milk fresh from the cows, dark bread and speck. A magical day.

Ah nearly forgot Mauterndorf in Austria. Several hills to ski on and Obertauern just up the road if the snow conditions are poor locally. Also cheap accomodation in Mauterndorf itself, picteresque village and hardly any queues at the lifts

Krippenstein



We ran across Krippenstein many years ago on a wander around that part of the Austrian Alps when living in Munich. O-P at the top and an incredibly long, empty piste down to the cable car which was our own private race track for the day.

Don't know how unknown it is, but it's small enough most people would ignore it - Nordkette. I've spent many weeks skiing this area over the last three years, and not bored yet.

Not enough kilometres of piste for snowheads though Laughing
