Niederau

Tour Operator : Thomson, Hotel : Vicky

This was our first trip to Austria. I do not want to seem too critical as the Hotel was very good but we came for the skiing!

I will start with the Hotel :
Accomodation was good and more roomy than we normally get in France. The food was good quality and the staff were very friendly. Special mention to the bar staff !!!

Slopes were a trek of about 200 yards but not too steep. If there was enough snow you could cross the road and ski back to the door.

The slopes themselves were a bit limited, although poor snow conditions did not help. The main problem was how badly laid out it was. I took the kids along a blue and the only way was a T bar up or a red down. We took the T bar up and down the other side. This was followed by a long trek up a steep slope to get back to the cable car.
