Visitor Reviews of Abtenau
Sandra Birkinshaw (Senior) from UNITED KINGDOM writes:
I have been visiting Abtenau for the past 29 years. We have visited in spring, summer, autumn and last but not least the winter (all seasons are beautiful). I don't ski, but my husband and children all ski. My husband and children all learned to ski in Abtenau and indeed my son also takes his wife (Sandra) and his children for skiing in Abtenau. My son and his family do go to other countries to ski, but still love to go back to Abtenau every year. We get a very good hotel. It is quiet, the air is clean, lift pass prices are good, food and drink is good and reasonably priced and last but not least, the scenery is wonderful and breathtaking; you absorb all this and then say 'I will be back next year'.
The skiing is excellent for families, the pistes are always kept in an excellent condition as are the langlauf trails and for the people who would like something more challenging, it is only a very short trip on the local bus to a very vast ski region. Give Abtenau a go and you won't regret it.
