Visitor Reviews of Hochkönig
Ben Greaves from Austria writes:
I have enjoyed 4 ski holidays in the Hochkönig ski area over the last 6 years. I always stay at the Birgkarhaus hotel which is on the Dientner sattle between Mühlbach and Dienten. I love this area because it can be very quiet during the off-peak times and sometimes it feels that I have the piste all to myself. The prices are reasonable the pistes are well looked after and so are the 3 Parks. Off-piste is pretty awesome if you know where to go and the locals are very friendly. Dienten maybe small but the bars are wicked.
