The Best Ski Resorts In Austria.

With the Alps covering most of the country, well laid out slopes, excellent mountain facilities, modern lift systems, Austria is one of Europe’s top ski destinations.
Austrian ski villages can be chocolate-box pretty, with good, reasonably priced accommodation.
The downside is that many of the best ski resorts in Austria are at mid-altitude, so the snow can be a bit sketchy.
Winter Driving In Austria.
All vehicles driving on snow-covered roads must have winter or all season tyres from Nov 1 to April 15. Snow chains are not compulsory, except when advised.
