Skiing right up to a roomy, modern apartment with excellent facilities is the Das Alpenhaus way. This aparthotel is a great choice for all kinds of groups wishing to self-cater, though families especially appreciate the kids’ play area and closeness to Katschi’s Children’s World – the playful nursery slopes for little ones.

The apartments take up to six and come in various sizes. Your kitchenette has all you need to put together a quick bite or cook up a storm, but you also have the rustic Alp.In restaurant here if you fancy trying out the classic Austrian hospitality on your doorstep. You have a bright living space with smooth pine panelling and comfy furniture, and best of all your own balcony or terrace with mountain view.

There’s a spa here too, so you can follow up slope time with a bit of TLC. Pick your sauna of choice to have a lie down in, or natter about your day on the mountain while doing some gentle strokes in the pool. And if you’re one to finish your night with drinks and music, then head to the Almkessel across the road – it’s the place to be.
