I was lucky enough to have a short break in Obergurgl this month, and I loved it!
I haven’t skied here since I was 12, but it was as fabulous as I remember.
What level of skiing is Obergurgl good for?
Beginners, Intermediates, families, and those looking for late or early snow.
The highest resort in Austria, Obergurgl, is fabulous for late and Spring skiing (my fav type of skiing!). Weather patterns are all over the place, and seasons sadly getting shorter. There is no snow surety at any point, but what skiing late (Spring) usually gives you is lovely sunshine, and I am here for that, and Obergurgl on this occasion did not disappoint.
If you would like to start your own Obergurgl journey, and understand if this is the right resort for you and your family, click the “make an enquiry” button below and fill in your details.
I will be in touch and we can chat about the options. I have access to all the big tour operators, so booking through me costs you nothing; I get paid by the operators.
