Kaunertal Glacier ski resort, Austria - a quiet, little piece of high alpine heaven.
Kaunertal Glacier skiing can get a tad lonely...............!
Tucked away on the frontier with Italy, Kaunertal Glacier ski resort in the Austrian Tyrol, provides a relaxed snow experience, free from all the hype of of its larger neighbours (think Ischgl, Serfaus Fiss Ladis), but still with quality snow, terrain, lifts & freeride powder ski options.
Kaunertal Glacier is Europe's most approachable glacier skiing area for beginner & intermediates. Its compact size, ease of navigation, quality snow & friendly piste terrain make it perfect for families & those skiers & snowboarders preferring their riding on the easier side of the ledger. That said, the off-piste powder, freeride routes & backcountry ski touring is superb & under-rated. See the Kaunertal Glacier ski trail map here.
Challenging couloirs & expert terrain with a little imagination.
Difficult returns from some of the backcountry routes (including to Italy).
The Kaunertal Glacier ski resort has accommodation within its boundaries. The closest lodging options are in the village of Feichten im Kaunertal. Further afield the villages of Prutz, Ried im Oberinntal & Fendels provide ample alternatives. Failing that, Landeck makes a useful base from which to explore this fabulous ski region.
