The Skiing
You will be enjoying six days of skiing (or snowboarding) in the
stunningly picturesque village of Obergurgl which has a rustic and
charming ambience. It is surrounded on all sides by a magnificent
mountain panorama formed by 21 peaks and over 3000m altitude.
You will be in the heart of the action. The main lift is just outside
the hotel which also offers ski in/ski out access. Your lift pass will
also cover the Hochgurgl area which is connected to Obergurgl via
the Top-Express Gurgl lift. The gondola only takes nine minutes to
connect you, giving you even more piste to explore, including the
mogul slope at Top-Wurmkogl if you dare!
Your lift pass now covers Obergurgl, Hochgurgl and Sölden.

The Hotel
Hotel Edelweiss & Gurgl
We pride ourselves on the quality of our venues and the
Hotel Edelweiss & Gurgl excels with its high standards
of cuisine and service. Owned by the Scheiber family
since it was built in 1889, the hotel has a fantastic prime
location right next to the Gaisberg and Rosskar ski lifts.
You can be first on the slopes in the morning and come
the afternoon, just step out of your skis and on to the
terrace for an après ski drink!
Once you have returned from the slopes you can
then either retire to your cosy bedroom, or relax in
the Glacier Spa. The spa is an oasis of 1200sq metres
of saunas, steam rooms, fitness suite and indulgent
treatment rooms, to soothe aching muscles and ready
yourself for the next day’s adventures. It even offers
incredible panoramic views of the mountains.
