We are travellinng with our family every year since 2023 in winter and also in summer to Zell am See/Kaprun,in winter for skiing and in summer for trekking/hiking.Schmittenhöhe is a very beautiful place with amazing view to the surrounding mountains and also the city.Cable cars are very well managed,modern and safe.Friendly and helpful staff, although,last summer we missed the young tall kind guy from the mountain information,he always helped us finding routes for our hiking preferences,and has a lot of knowledge about the the places around. If you are in Zell am See don´t miss to visit Schmittenhöhe!

  • The place is good altogether,the only downside that sometimes in peak season it can be crowded
  • None

I'm very disappointed with the Schmitten ski resort. Their advertising is great, but the actual offer is very disappointing. Yet they know how to raise prices. In summary, the slope conditions today, December 26, 2024, are very poor and, on top of that, not even finished.

I went there for the first time this year and loved it; I highly recommend it. This place deserves much more attention.

Unfriendly ticket sellers for half-day tickets. It took 15 minutes for one person, including photo and entering their details into the computer. Normally, a registration form from the municipality should suffice. But during peak season, locals aren't exactly welcome with discounted tickets. Sad, sad.

Overall great resort with runs everyone will enjoy. And great amount of piste for the day. Easy have map run nearby aswell if you want to change the slopes up. Hopefully more snow next year in December!

  • Great piste for everyone and nicely wide so enough space.
  • In the afternoon the terrain gets very icy as the sun goes behind the mountain, and moguls start appearing on the narrow terrain.

Byłem tam raz i już więcej nie wrócę. Poza lodowcem, na który trzeba dojechać to niskie stoki - do 2 000 m. Dużo ludzi, kuchnia jak dla mnie słaba i drożyzna. W okolicach południa na lodowcu tworzyły się muldy. Ogólnie średnia ilość tras. Są lepsze miejsca dla snowboardzisty jak choćby Val Thorrens czy Les 2 Alpes. Francję zimą odkryłem najpóźniej, ale najbardziej pokochałem. Austria może przyjdzie na starość :)

  • Dobra infrastruktura apress ski
  • Tłumy, muldy, poza lodowcem nisko i krótko

Angefangen beim Skiverleih über die Lifte, die Hütten bis hin zum Skibus überall hätte man das Gefühl nicht willkommen zu sein. Auf der Höhe der Zeit ist man hier nur bei der Preisgestalltung! In anderen Skiregionen hat man allerdings deutlich das Gefühl, dass man um seine Gäste bemüht ist und das Beste gibt. Stattdessen in der Skihütte Drehkreuze mit Kassenautomaten vor den Toiletten... und dann Toilettenkabinen ohne Licht und ohne funktionierendes Schloss. Einfache Hausmannskost mit einer Auswahl, die wohl noch aus den 70ern stammt zu Preisen eines 4-Sterne-Restaurants und dann Portionen die kaum für Kinder ausreichend sind. Im Sporthotel Alpin versucht das Personal durch Ignoranz und Unfreundlichkeit Gäste vom Restaurantbesuch abzuhalten. Die Liftgesellschaft sollte nicht nur das Geld zählen sondern z.B. entsprechend der Anzahl der Gäste für ausreichend Skibusse sorgen.

  • Es gibt viel bessere Skigebiete
  • Sehr teuer bei schlechtem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis
