Visitor Reviews of Galtür

Galtur is a small, pretty village best suited to families, mixed skiing ability groups but not those looking for great night life. It has lovely slopes which are great for getting ski legs back, also those learning to ski and it's close proximity to Ischgl means that the skiing is extensive for the more experienced. Free ski buses run frequently between the two resorts (8-10 mins) and can be used in the evening for visiting the night life in Ischgl. Galtur has a good Sports Centre with swimming pool, wellness facilities, bowling and a few bars. Otherwise, life is centred on the hotels and restaurants after a day skiing. Enjoyed our week with super snow and will return.
