Neiderau

What is so good? Obviously some of us live there/have a commercial interest but a lot of people visit year on year.. what do you go for folks?

To the best of my knowledge, of J2skiers, only Jan lives there.

I guess that I am the other most regular writer on Niederau. I have spent so much time there, I know a lot about the place, and I am always happy to help those that have specific queries. I have no commercial interest.

In truth, I would be the wrong person to ask, because I suspect that you would be looking for km of skiing, total number of blacks, night life. Someone else can do that.

When you go back to the same place on a regular basis, over a long period, you get to know a lot about the place, the people, characters, history, building, art, music, village life. So for me, it has a great life value, as good as, but different from that of the small village that I live by. I lived there for four winters, and instructed there. My friend died in a ski accident and is buried in the churchyard.

I don't care that it is a small ski resort, don't mind doing the same run over again, I know 10,000 different ways down! To me, skiing is body poetry.

What is interesting to me is the number of people, both on J2ski and those I meet skiing, who also have gained an affinity with the village. I too would be interested in the answers.

Thanks for that, just curious not malicious! Nightlife//Offpiste are my main concerns...

So why are you working in Scotland Ross? :mrgreen:

There are heaps of good Euro places that would meet those two criteria, Niederau is not one of them, compared to some other places.

Thought you were going back to Canada? Surely that's a better bet for offpiste.

Yeh thats the plan.. just now anyway. No idea when my exams are yet so can't really book for Jan. Either that or Sainte Foy where some folks the old man knows have a chalet..

Just curious :wink: Not actually considering going :lol:
