Seefeld Ski Holidays

While not quite being in the same ‘millionaires’ playground’ league as St Moritz, Gstaad or Aspen when it comes to being an exclusive ski resort (where everything comes with a hefty price tag), Seefeld is nonetheless an attractive purpose-built resort that can boast lavish hotels, high class shops, sumptuous bars and clubs, and more. But that is not to say skiing holidays at Seefeld are only for the rich and famous. Those on a budget can enjoy a cheap skiing holiday, too. Individual travellers, couples, families and groups can all find affordably-priced skiing holidays at Seefeld through directline-skiing, and there is a wide choice of accommodation, dining and après-ski options at Seefeld to suit all tastes and budgets.

 

As one of the villages that make up the Olympic Region Seefeld, Seefeld itself is situated right on the edge of the wonderful Karwendel Nature Reserve, one of the most beautiful nature parks in Austria. Not many ski resorts across Europe can also offer visits to a protected nature reserve and national park, and even fewer can invite visitors to enjoy everything the resort has to offer, while also combining trips to other resorts in a neighbouring country(all for the price of one skiing holiday).

 

Day trips to Germany are possible from the Seefeld plateau. Expert skiers should definitely make the short journey to the Zugspitze in Germany (covered on the Seefeld Lift Pass) where glacier skiing at almost 3,000m is available. 

 

At Seefeld, there is skiing to suit skiers of all abilities. For snowboarders, the snow park will not disappoint. The skiing in Seefeld is concentrated in two mountain regions: the Gschwandtkopf and the Rosshulte, where the combined 27km of well-groomed pistes are always tightly-packed with snow.

 

Seefeld is the one ski resort that cross-country skiing fanatics can’t resist heading for each winter when they want to enjoy cross-country skiing at its finest, and at a ski resort that has already twice hosted the Olympic Games. But that doesn’t mean Seefeld is only for adrenaline junkies and those who seek to jam-pack their skiing holiday in Austria each year with endless thrills and spills on the slopes and the wildly dramatic cross-country terrain; the overall feel of Seefeld is almost the complete opposite of that, in fact.

 

Skiers and non-skiers holiday in Seefeld each year because they love the ‘no pressure’ atmosphere (both on and off the slopes). At Seefeld you can enjoy leisurely skiing without being made to feel you should be adopting a much more competitive approach. The focus at Seefeld really is on relaxation and unhurried pleasure, making it a ski resort of contrasts, and the perfect destination for families and beginners.
