One of the prettiest and friendliest villages in the Tyrol.  Traditional chalets are clustered around a typically Austrian church. Sunny and compact with a limited skiing area.  An excellent choice for beginners, intermediates and families.

In Favour of Alpbach

A picturesque and welcoming village offering typical Austrian Gemütlichkeit.  Home of the Alpbach Visitors Ski Club.  Good nursery slopes (one with artificial snow) close to the village area offer a variety of terrain for novices.  Reliable snow on mainly north facing slopes.  The main skiing area of the Wiedersbergerhorn 2 km. from the village is accessed by bus (free with ski pass). An efficient 6-person gondola ensures little queuing. .   A new 8-person gondola and Ski lifts from Inneralpach, down the road, offer doorstep skiing from some hotels.  Tyrolean après ski, centres on some lively teatime bars. A delightful place to learn to ski with few lift queues in a typically Tyrolean resort

Disadvantages

Low altitude dictates that you ski this resort before the end of March.  A rather limited skiing area somewhat inconveniently located in relation to the village.

Non Skiing activities:

Swimming pool, sauna. Ice-rink for skating and curling but some way from the centre. Sleigh rides and walking. Bowling in Kramsach (12km away).  Plenty of shops, informal eating-places and nightlife.
