Excellent lift system, no queues, superb pistes; this ara is now connected and so certainly big enough. Does suit the good intermediate more, but still plenty for black runs for the mogul hounds. We have enjoyed the food on the mountain with lots of options ad great prices. Make sure you visit Haus s Salzburg for apres-ski and bar food.
