Overview

If you're after a fun ski area, nearby ski lifts, a bed for the night, some tasty food and the best nightlife in the resort, right on your doorstep, then you need look no further.

Description

The Sporthotel Niederau has a pretty basic set-up, but where it stands out is its location. You can more or less roll out of bed and onto the Markbachjoch gondola. And for when you want to explore a bit further afield, the ski bus stop is about a minute away on foot too

Food is simple yet filling. The menu features traditional home cooked Tirolean dishes. Also new manager, Nick, is vegetarian - so there'll always be a veggie option too.

If you love your après as much as you love your on piste shenanigans then this place should tick a lot of boxes. The Sports Bar is the perfect place to catch up on the scores and grab a drink. Downstairs in the basement is the livelier Alm Bar which hosts regular live music and has party tunes playing until late.

About Niederau

Niederau skiing

Niederau skiing is probably best suited to beginners and early intermediates, with a highly regarded ski school, nice nursery slopes and gentle blues. There isn't really much for more advanced skiers apart from a bit of off-piste and a couple of black runs, although there is a good snow park down in Auffach (free ski bus)for those that are that way inclined.

Niederau ski resort

The resort itself is picturesque and charming. Accommodation is located close to the slopes and the après ski is good without being too hectic. The sedate and friendly atmosphere makes for a good choice for family ski holidays, as does the short transfer (45 mins to Innsbruck).
