How to ski in Alpbach
Alpbach sits at 975 metres, and it is here below the village that the easiest pistes are found, a good forty per cent of the entire system. Beginners and families can take the lifts straight from the village up to open, gentle slopes where they can practise without having to cross more difficult terrain.
The higher you climb towards the top of the system at 2 025 metres, the more demanding the pistes become. The red runs, a quarter of the map, lie at mid-altitude, while the few black sections are found right at the top where the flanks are at their steepest.
Alpbach is part of Ski Juwel Alpbachtal Wildschönau, with 113 kilometres of piste and 46 lifts in total, making it possible to ski through several valleys in a single day without ever taking your skis off. A full circuit of the system takes up a large part of the day if you want to reach the furthest corners.
The vertical drop between the village and the summit is over a thousand metres, so the snow often holds up best higher up later in the season. The pistes closest to Alpbach soften easily, and things can get busier around lunchtime, when the day visitors gather down in the village.
