Skiing at Hinterthal

We have booked a ski holiday to Hinterthal next Feb . Has anyone any advise or views on the resort and area.

I see your post goes some time without response and I give my limited knowledge.



I believe a new lift is being built this year to improve the skiing.



The relatively small village is between the bigger places of Dienten and Maria Alm.



relatively easier skiing - not extra high terrain - the general area know as the Hochkonig.



Numerous newer apartments and time shares in the area brings some english visitors i think. many families



perhaps some one else has some personal experience

Hi,





I have not stayed in Hinterthal itself but ski in the Hochkonig area every year as it is part of the Amade pass. The skiing is linked from Muhlbach to Hinterthal on one side and then from Hinterthal to Maria Alm the other way. I think it is some of the most picturesque skiing in the area. The slopes are great for intermediates and a large enough ski area for a week, and also plenty of long easy runs for beginners. It%26#39;s also rarely too busy and there are quite a few huts etc. Definitely recommend the area and it is relatively unknown to Brits.





Take a look at the website at www.hochhonig.at

many thanks for your info. We booked the holiday because it was much cheaper at half term than many of the well known resorts. Your comments were valuable as this area is a bit of gamble.You make it sound ideal for a family holiday of mixed ability skiers.
