For information, the village Mandarfen is only 2 km from the lift to Pitztal glacier and you can ski from Riffelsee to the lift, mountain railway (the railway takes 10 min to the glacier). The bus takes 5 min between Mandarfen and Pitztal glacier. You enter the cabin directly from Mandarfen village to Riffelsee ski area. Mandarfen have a lot of hotels, mostly 4 stars, within 25 to 500 meters to the lift/cabin, or take the bus 5 min to the glacier. It's a small, nice quiet and lovely place with good skiing. Have been there four times and will soon be back.
