Hochzeiger Skigebiet Guide

Hochzeiger resort is a great place to find that has not been over run by Brits. I have been going to this area since my army days of serious cross country skiing in 1967, when I was fit. My German friend introduced me to Hochzeiger 10 years ago and we normally stay in Wenns 6kms away. The hotel Schirgantblick is fantastic and will pick you up from the bars at the bottom of the lifts if you miss the last bus. The costs at this resort are a fraction of the large ones like St Anton. Last year, Feb 2008, we didn't come across any other Brits in the area and the hotel found us almost a novelty. Can't fault Hochzeiger, except my wife isn't keen on the free bus from Wenns (20mins) and 20 hairpin bends. Recommend it but fly to Innsbruck as the journey is only 55mins and the hotel will collect you free of charge.
