Austria
Why choose Austria for your school ski trip? The recipe is simple. A great range of resorts and ski areas to suit all abilities, some of the most modern lift systems in Europe, first class glacier skiing and heavy investment in snow making are just some of the ingredients. Add to that a high standard of accommodation which varies from traditional family run guesthouses suitable for one party to modern and spacious youth hotels with excellent amenities and you have already the raw materials to ensure a perfect trip.
Many of the resorts we feature have a good range of entertainment possibilities to add to the whole winter sports experience. We have selected two new ski areas, Dachstein West and Achensee which both provide the important mix of varied, snow sure skiing and good access to entertainment venues. Both resorts are located in idyllic settings and easily reached by coach or local airports.
It has not surprising that so many groups return year after year to a destination that offers the perfect ski package, or indeed are
prepared to try different places, safe in the knowledge that all requirements will be met.
