Spread across the Wildschonau and Alpbachtal resorts, Ski Juwel has always been a favourite ski spot with our schools, thanks to its tranquil setting and pretty tree-lined pistes. This picturesque and tranquil resort is set against some of Austria’s most stunning scenery, including magnificent mountain backdrops that will wow your students on their ski runs. Once the ski day is up, don’t miss a visit to the charming and traditional villages of the valley, to add a cultural dimension to your ski trip.

Features

The huge range of blue runs appeal to all skiers, giving beginners something to progress towards and allowing improvers to experience a range of different slopes – the wide runs above the tree line and long descents through the pine forests are a good place to build stamina and practice speed control. 

The Niederau ski area has varied terrain, with gentle beginner runs as well as steep blacks that give confident skiers something to aim for. Auffach’s higher altitude is popular with intermediates and its long, beautifully groomed runs are loved by all abilities.
