Hi Dave and Tony, well if transfer to the resort is included that's a fantastic surprise, as it wasn't clear to me from the booking process and I was given an option for a "private transfer" which seemed rather pricey so I decided to skip it. Great if there is a transfer already in there!

I can only blame my Christmas Eve late-night mental haze for my confusion ;)

... it would be worth the effort to go up and down in the Gondola, enjoy the views over the Kitzbuhler Alps, and have a drink in Rudis bar.
Gill's husband, Herbert, runs the Harfenwirt, and Herbert's sister, Maria runs the Bichlwirt~ you should try and visit the Bichl, and try to get to one of Herbert's Harp sessions. The Irish bar O'malleys has live music.


Dave, really appreciate these pointers. Thanks.

Private transfers are offered if you want to spend an insane amount of money on heading to your resort in a smaller taxi instead of on the transfer bus. If you declined it, you should have the bus transfer included as the private transfer is an optional extra.

You've got to try the Sports Cafe just across the road from O'Malley's owned by Simon and ran by him and his brother Gunther who is also an instrutor with the red ski school (who are amazing - we've had 4 years of lessons with them). It's mad for about 3 hrs and then everyone goes for dinner. Enjoy Niederau - we are going again in March
