  Visited Flachau (Flachau-Reitdorf) in Jan 2008 after a 6 year gap from skiing. Fantastic skiing and so much sunshine. Some fantastic long runs - blues that just go on forever. If the fog sets in, just hop on the bus and go round the valley to the other slopes. Stayed at Hotel Hartl - an excellent hotel with fab food and service.

  Flachau is a top area. Great snow and facilities, the best found at Flachauwinkel resort. Will not try another Austrian resort again.

  Flachau and the surrounding region is great for intermediate skiers. Check (www)flachau.co.uk for some independent advice on where to ski.

  Great area at centre of "Ski Amade", the largest single pass ski area in Austria (0ver 860km of runs, 270 lifts) . Not known in the UK and very underrated by British skiers, but well known among Germans, Dutch and Scandinavians. Great variety of slopes and more than enough directly above the village to keep most people busy for a week, and the huge Ski Amade area will keep the most adventurous happy. Best option is flight to Salzburg, which is only 40 mins away, by taxi or rental car. Munich is just over 2 hours. If you want to tour the surrounding area rental car best option, otherwise taxi from Salzburg is good. Ryanair, Thomsonfly and others now serving Salzburg make this a great combination of first class ski area, very near airport and low cost flights.
  Known locally for its reliable snow. For example at Xmas 2006, when most of the alps were struggling people were being bused to this area from others. Skied here at Easter 2006 on a metre of snow right into the village.
  This area was picked over Kitzbuehel for the Alpine skiing events in Salzburg's 2014 Winter Olympic bid - which tells you something about the quality of slopes and reliability of snow.

  lovely area for beginners and intermediates
  ski pass includes altenmarkt,flachau,wagrain,flachauwinkl and zauchensee
  zauchensee high snowsure but with some narrow areas approaching base station can be icy
  easier if you have a car otherwise long trip on bus

  the rest all lower but have had good snow 6 years on trot in mid February.
  Lovely wide pistes flanked by trees
  mainly chairs and gondolas but some drags in flachau

  lovely mountain restaurants everywhere
  but transport still required between areas

  Usual travel arrangements flight into Munich and then hire car to local hotels
  (no brochure holidays)
  also possible to fly to Salzburg

  Flachau is easily accessible from Salzurg and if you book Ryanairs early flight out and late flight back to Stanstead you can add an extra two days on the slopes to the normal 6
  
  Flachau is great for beginners and intermediates but it is definately worth trying the ski bus to Flachauwinkle (approx 20mins)All included within your ski pass here you can ski over to Zauchensee which is higher and has more challenging slopes.
