St Anton Weather Check....
http://www.metcheck.com/V40/UK/FREE/snow_forecast_7.asp?resortID=16 If you get the chance, ski in Lech for a day (20 mins in a taxi). It's a prettier resort than St. Anton and is suitable for Intermediate & beginners. Have fun :P SteveC |
Arrived back on 10th Feb after a week in Soll. We had about 5cms worth of snow on the lower slopes when we were there and this seemed to help conditions - though some of the south facing slopes were showing bare patches as we neared the end of our trip. For best conditions in Soll itself, you should get up early and do a few warms ups on run 40 (top of Hohe Salve to top of the first gondola). Then head over towards Scheffau & Elmau which both have good snow and long varied runs (forget the piste map just follow the signs). Late afternoon conditions can get tricky because of the high temps but hey, that's half the fun.
Apres Ski all seems a bit tired in Whiskey Muhle and Salve Stadl so Rossini Bar is a good alternative. Also try the restaurant in the Hotel PostWirt for a great selection of steak dinners. Happy Skiing :D |
