Alpbach Christmas holidays
Voted the most beautiful village in Austria there is nowhere better to spend the festive season and experience the delights of a traditional Austrian Christmas.
The village is usually tastefully decorated with twinkling fairy lights on the trees and cosy lights glowing out of the accommodation. For a wonderful Christmas experience, do some night time skiing on Tuesday, Friday and Saturday evenings and warm up afterwards with a tasty Glühwein.
The snowfall is usually good around the Christmas period ensuring you will get good snow conditions. Check out our ski history page to see what it’s usually like here in late December. Gliding down the fairy lit slopes will certainly get you in the mood for some festive food and drink in one of the many restaurants.
This is a great destination for a quiet family Christmas or a romantic break with that special someone. You can celebrate Christmas “Alpbach Style” on Christmas Eve, where locals exchange gifts around a candle lit tree and enjoy a festive meal. The village church even holds a traditional British Carol service on Christmas Eve, so you can enjoy the qualities of Christmas at home in a truly magical setting.
