    Steve, you're an ABSOLUTE LEGEND! I'm planning my first ski holiday and I couldn't find anything like your videos: Informative, easy, breaking down for different experience levels, no music, no "influencer teen" bullshit... Looking forward for more videos from you in ski and/or different sports as well (why not) :D

    Love this video. Super helpful for planning the trip and getting the most out of the mountain. Do you have any recommendations for traveling late Dec/early January? Anything is useful. Thanks!

    Fantastic video Steve- so helpful and full of great tips, I will there in a couple of weeks staying at Hotel Alpina. I am now in my senior years as a skier and now tend to be inclined to ski the easier wider Blues, can you advise how difficult is the Red 12 section in Obergurgl that runs down to the Top Express cable car. Or should I just get the bus from Obergurgl to Hochgurgl?

    • @steveslifereviews
      @steveslifereviews  Před rokem +2

      Great hotel. I expect you will cope with the red fine. Maybe leave till after lunch.
      It’s quite enjoyable so long as not really icy.

    Looks fun, but such was the bad experience I had the first time I ever tried skiing, it put me off it for life, so my skiing is now restricted to watching skiing videos on You Tube. Skiing, you're welcome to it.

    Hi Steve. I’m here with my kids can you recommend the easiest blue run that is easy cruising and avoids as many steep bits as possible. Steep for a beginner I mean.

    • @steveslifereviews
      @steveslifereviews  Před rokem

      Sorry. You are probably home by now. I guess it will be the short lift out of the village up by the Nederhutte

    • @steveslifereviews
      @steveslifereviews  Před 5 měsíci +1

      There are some nice white blues higher up, but the ones down into the bottom of the valley are narrower and more challenging

      If you’d like really good apres ski , it has to be Obergurgle
      The Nederhutte is on the home run and you can ski home in the dark to most of the hotels.
      It’s an absolute banging Apres bar Probably a quarter of a mile up the mountain with an easy run home had an excellent House band.

      @@garynealon6060 I have stayed at the Hausgurgle.
      Lovely people, great food and you can ski virtually to the doorstep with a short walk across the car park
      I don’t recall any noise.
      Our rooms are in the Annex.
      The downside is that you have to walk outside of the hotel to get into the restaurant and bar, although this was no drama as far as we were concerned.
      Up side-the rooms were massive
      It’s in a fairly quiet spot
      We also stayed at the Bellevue a previous year which was also very good and a slightly better location

      I have been twice. Firstly, the week before Christmas and secondly early January. It is a high resort and there was loads of snow both times.
