Oberau Ski Holidays

The fact that Obergurgl can rightfully claim to be Austria’s highest alpine ski village might have something to do with its immense appeal. Imagine leaving the daily grind of back home far behind by catching a plane to Austria, and then only hours later checking into your Obergurgl accommodation where the views from your hotel window will be like something from a film set (the Otztel Alps and the Italian Dolomites have often been used by Hollywood producers looking to shoot scenes in perfect winter wonderland idylls, in fact).

 

Obergurgl is situated deep in the Tyrolean countryside, so if a ‘get away from it all’ winter escape far from the madding crowd is what you crave, then you’ll find all the peace and tranquillity you seek at Obergurgl. Let the magnificent series of peaks and glaciers surround you as you relax, breathe in the pure Alpine air, and do, well, as much or as little as you please at an Austrian resort that is low-key and laidback, yet can still offer plenty for visitors to see and do.

 

There is all-season-long winter sunshine at Obergurgl (from November to May), as well as clear blue skies, guaranteed snow, and low winds. That means you can enjoy day after day of uninterrupted skiing, as well as other available winter sports, such as snowshoeing, ice-skating, curling, and more.

 

Are you a non-skier who will be heading off to Obergurgl soon with your family and/or friends, and are perhaps concerned that there may not be much for you to do there? Don’t worry; as well as indoor activities, such as swimming, bowling and even golf, you could also add leisurely winter walks along winding mountain paths, arts and crafts afternoons, and even folklore evenings to your Obergurgl holiday itinerary. (Note: Obergurgl is car-free in the evenings, making family strolls beneath the stars after dinner a real delight.)
