Visitor Reviews of Heiligenblut
nick murphy from Ireland writes:
I have skiied in loads of the Austrian locations: Soll, Kitzbuhl, St Johann, Saalfeldon to name just a few. I have also skiied in Italy and Switzerland, but I have returned to Heiligenblut for the past four years because of the range of skiing that can be done there.
Heiligrnblut has so much to offer people who want to ski. There is a wide variety, from cross-country to off-piste, not to mention the normal routes.
The ski instructors are fantastic with everyone, from complete beginners to anyone who just wants a tune up on their skills. The people are extremely friendly and helpful.
Whenever I go to Heiligenblut I always stay at pension Bergkristal. The lady of the house is so nice and friendly and always has a warm smile to meet and greet the guests. She speaks very good English and is excellent company.
Eating and drinking in Heiligenblut is very reasonable and the locals will always say hello as they pass you by. There is a lot to do in Heiligenblut if you don't want to ski. There are fantastic walks in the forests on the south side of the village, or if you visit in the winter you can head further up onto the higher mountains for bogger and more higher mountains to walk and climb on.
Either way you will enjoy your trip to heiligenblut, I guarantee it.
