Skiing

Gateway to the biggest ski area

in the world on a single pass

The three alpine villages of Niederau, Oberau and Auffach nestle in one of Austria's most beautiful valleys known as the Wildschonau. Niederau is a friendly, safe and generally snow-sure resort. There are a number of hotels and guest houses scattered around a small village centre which also has a ski shop, a number of ski hire outlets, bars, restaurants and a bank. Close by is a garage and two large supermarkets.

Apres Ski and night time bars are all pretty relaxed and informal. There are a scattering of bars close to the slopes. There's also the ever so busy bar and terrace at O'Malley's. The Cave underneath the hotel is a Niederau institution - and has been for over 50 years. Something going on every night and live music as well.

The resorts main ski lifts and nursery slopes are less than 150 meters from the hotel and apart from crossing the main road, our guests can ski back to the door for most of the season. The resort villages of Oberau and Auffach are easily accessible by complimentary ski bus. A new fast access Gondola will transform uplift in Auffach from the start of this season.

The Wildschonau is just 20 minutes from the town of Worgl. With its mainline station and direct access to the motorways, there are simple and fast connections to Innsbruck, Salzburg and Munich.
