Try to head up right when they open at 9 AM. The first few hours were less busy, and we had fresh powder to ourselves to enjoy!

If you're a beginner, consider hitting the slopes on weekdays. The trails are way less crowded, and it's easier to find space to practice.

Check the weather beforehand. I went on a cloudy day and missed the breathtaking views from the top. Clear days are so worth it!
Penken Ski Resort
SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser

Take the gondola ride to the top for stunning views, especially at sunset. My friends and I just loved the photos, and it's free if you have a day pass.

If you're a beginner, I'd suggest starting early, around 8:30 AM, to avoid long lines at the lifts and have the slopes to yourself for a bit. It's so worth it!
Ski Juwel Alpbachtal Wildschonau

My advice is to try the local food at the mountain huts. I stumbled upon a small one that had the best Kaiserschmarrn! It's a nice break from skiing and the prices are often better than in the main towns.

If you're renting gear, go for a fitting on the first day instead of skiing. I waited and had to deal with an uncomfortable snowboard the whole time. It's not worth the pain when you can get comfy gear!
Starthaus Hahnenkammabfahrt

If you're renting gear, check out the shops in town instead of at the resort... Prices can be a little lower, and you can take your time choosing! I learned this the hard way!

Make sure to have a solid lunch packed if you're skiing. The on-mountain restaurants can be packed and overpriced. I ended up waiting ages for just a sandwich
Vaya Soelden

I suggest hitting the slopes early, like around 8:30 AM, to beat the crowds. It makes for a way smoother start, and you can get in so many more runs before the lifts get busy.

My advice is to buy your ski pass online ahead of time. I thought I could just get it on-site, but the lines can be really long, especially during peak season.

Check out the local eateries around town for lunch instead of the on-mountain spots. I found some cute places that were way cheaper and had delish options off the slopes

I think bringing your own snacks and drinks can save you some cash! The stores there have good hiking food options for the slopes, but the on-mountain prices were a bit steep.
Silvretta Arena
Ehrenbachhohe Talstation

I suggest renting your gear at a nearby shop instead of at the resort. It was much cheaper and the quality was just as good. Plus, you avoid the hassle of lugging it around!

My advice is to try the slopes on a weekday. It’s way less crowded, and you’ll have way more space to practice your skills without feeling rushed by others.

I think you should stop by the local bakery for some pastries before hitting the slopes. They were delicious and gave me the energy I needed for a full day of skiing!
Poglbahn Inneralpbach

Check out the little snack huts near the lifts for affordable meals instead of the resort restaurants. They serve great local dishes without breaking the bank!

For the best snow conditions, hit the slopes early – around 8:30 AM is perfect before the crowds arrive. You'll have fresh tracks for at least an hour!

Make sure to explore the other slopes nearby – I discovered some hidden gems while I was searching for new trails. The views are just as stunning off the beaten path!
I found that renting ski equipment in Alpbach village is cheaper than near the lifts. Plus, you can get set up without the rush of the slopes!
