AUSTRIA - ISCHGL - SKIING

We come back every winter to Austria for great skiing and in particular to this place called Ischgl. You will find Ischgl west of Innsbruck and south of Landeck.

I would like to share what this area and this hotel has to offer.

If anyone has been to Ischgl, I would like to know how you enjoyed the area.


Austria is so much fun that I can't help but return year after year.

My husband Dan and I spend one week to ten days in Ischgl then drive around to ski in different areas such as Kitzbuel, St Anton or St Johann in Austria and Brexen, (the Dolomites) in (Tirol) Italy, then either drive to Vienna for wine, fabulous food and shopping before our flight back home to Canada.
Sometimes we go back to spend the last week of our vacation in Ischgl and fly back from Munich, Germany.
