Following their announcements of new destination choices in Scandinavia and the USA, Crystal Ski Holidays say they’ll also be offering holidays to Nassfeld in Austria next winter.
Nassfeld is the largest resort in the southern Austrian region of Carinthia and is located close to the Italian and Slovenian borders. Scenic and sunny, it has a wide range of intermediate slopes, along with a selection of mountain huts and restaurants.
Nassfeld itself and Sonnleiten are in fact mid-mountain lift bases, with accommodation, while there’s more down in the valley village of Tröpolach at the bottom of the access gondola.
A two-stage gondola gives access to the Madritsche mid station at 1920m where there are also nursery slopes and amenities. Lifts serve slopes below Trogkofel and the higher peak of Gartnerkofel at 2195m.
In addition to the mainly blue and red runs, there are some black pistes and access to ski routes.
For freestylers there’s a half pipe, fun park and race course with automatically-recorded videos. ‘Nice Surprise’ information boards guide guests to these attractions and there’s also free Wi-Fi across the resort.
Away from the mountain the area offers 80km of cross-country trails, snow shoeing and horse-drawn sleigh rides.
