Zell am Ziller

Just to thank those on here who gave me so many good pointers re Zell am Ziller, where I had a great week last week. As I was in ski school for most of the week, I couldn't take advantage of all of the side-trips which people suggested, but frankly, I found more than enough to keep me happy in the Ziller Arena area. However, a trip to Kaltenbach was a real treat, with lots of skiing to be had.

I even managed my first black run (not all upright, I but managed it anyway !)

I would certainly go to the area again, although staying in Zell am Ziller itself does involve a (short) bus ride to the bottom of the gondola each morning, and the apres-ski in Zell itself is a bit limited, so maybe accommodation nearer the action would be something to consider next time. But all in all, a great area to ski in.
