Dachstein West

Designated a UNESCO Heritage centre and set amidst some of the most spectacular scenery in Europe, the ski area of Dachstein West has proved a popular destination for school groups for may years. On-going improvements have enhanced the lift system and many drag lifts have been replaced with state-of-the-art chair lifts. The unspoilt and welcoming resorts we offer are steeped in tradition and their appeal is in their easy going atmosphere, as well as offering good value for money.  Access to the slopes is easy whilst good après ski opportunities abound.

ON THE SLOPES
Beginners will gain confidence on the long, tree lined blue runs in Gosau or on the Astauwinkl in Annaberg. Intermediates will appreciate the wide variety of red runs on the Zwieselalm, which offers good links to Annaberg and Russbach.  Meanwhile, the snow park on the Edtalmbahn in Russbach has been redesigned by freeride experts to include more ‘obstacles’ or more fun for boarders. The artificial snow cover continues to be improved year on year, hardly surprising that Dachstein West now makes a perfect destination for school parties and offers great value for money.
