Ski Bad Gastein / Bad Hofgastein, Austria

All levels are taken care of in the area with nice gentle slopes and nursery runs for beginners to learn on and eventually advance to the many intermediate slopes in the region.

Each area offers a mix for boarders from snowparks with half pipes to terrain parks with rails and tabletops.
You will find plenty of ski deals in Bad Gastein and Bad Hofgastein where, after a hectic day exploring the local slopes, you can rejuvenate in the local thermal baths and hot springs. Bad Hofgastein would be the quieter of the two ski resorts but also the prettier with traditional austrian buildings and a pedestrianised centre.
