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 :-)

Off piste tuition in Bad Hofgastein/Gastein

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
Wondering if anyone can reccomend a good ski school in the area for off piste tuition. I am looking to get into off piste skiing more and would like an hour or so pointing my technique in the right direction as I have never been taught properly how to ski off piste. I am a confident skier on all runs but would rather start off right than spend all week experimenting!

Thanks in advance

mattdebbage, the chap I know in Gastein basically says there are 2 ski schools in Bad Hofgastein and they're both good. So here are the links to each:

Schlossalm Ski School - www.schischule-schlossalm.at
Snow Sport School Gastein - www.schneesportgastein.com/badhofgastein/index.php

Hope you have a good time, let me know if you need any other info.

Hi Kersh,

tomgrain, I have a suspicion that there is a school/guide for off piste in Bad Gastein, seperate from the ski school's I linked above. There's plenty to be going at for sure. I'll find out and post again later. Failing that, contact Speedster who knows the Gastein off piste better than me. He's out there at the moment.

Cheers
