Seefeld has long been known as one of the best and most popular ski resorts of the Tyrolean region of Austria.
This, the so-called "capital of running skiing", because the town at the time took three winter olympiads. Hence the magnificent infrastructure, and well-equipped highways of all kinds of difficulty levels, wonderful lifts and, of course, a huge number of hotels, hotels and entertainment facilities. At the same time, the ski resort still remains diverse. It has all the conditions for classes and conducting competitions for cross-country cross-country, biathlon, even race on dog sledding.
And if you take into account that the ski slopes are mostly completely covered and well-groomed and on the slopes just the mass of all kinds of ski schools,
It becomes clear where the Austria Olympic team is prepared.
Getting to this beautiful ski resort is the easiest most from the city of Insburg, the distance is meager, about 20 kilometers. Any hotel located near the slopes provides a transfer from the airport. The price, however, each hotel, the hotel complex, is different, fluctuates 50 euros. But, there are options, do not use the "dear" transfer, and get yourself. By the way, labor, this route will not be particularly. You should do more economically. From the international airport by taxi (expensive, in the avenas of 30 euros), by public transport (bus, pricing of 2.5 euros) to the center of Insburg, and there is a little passing to the railway station. The city of Seefeld is located on the railway "Innsbruck - Munich", trains in this direction are periodically followed, the price of a ticket is only 10 euros, the time on the road is 40 minutes.
From Munich - a little more difficult and much further and longer (a distance of 173 kilometers). But here it is not necessary to despair, you should use public transport, albeit a little longer and a little bitter - but save a very decent amount. From Munich International Airport to the city center by taxi (50 euros, the road on the road is about 20 minutes), by public transport (bus, pricing of 5.5 euros) to the center. Next, again at the train station and train to Seefeld (travel time from 2 hours).
The season officially begins in December and lasts until the end of March of the month, sometimes even to the first day of April (it all depends on the weather conditions and the height of ski trails). On Mount Rosshette the duration of the ride is somewhat longer than on Gswandtkopfe.
The city of Seefeld is essentially one of the most expensive ski resorts of Austria, but as not strange here is always full of tourists.
Dear here and hotels, at least them and countless. Basically, Three hotels, rarely meet Four Star (Starry - on Western standards, and not on our "lugware", positioning themselves as 5 stars).
I recommend paying attention to the beautiful hotel "Veronika".
Hotel I consider the best place to stay, from the whole huge selection of similar institutions. Perfectly located (almost the most descents), while still a sense of certain privacy is created thanks to the chic nature. Near the forest, the lake, from the windows a wonderful view of the mountainside. I liked it very much that the administration of the hotel is paid to great attention to children of any age. The hotel's beautiful children's room "Kiddes Club", children are constantly busy, the mass of thematic games, different "fun" and this in addition to skiing. The hotel has its own indoor pool, sauna (for guests is completely free). On the ski descents (immediately after breakfast), guests will take a special car, it also takes, it is worth only to call the administration's rack and to specify the place from which you pick up. Weekly vacation in this hotel will cost about 1140 euros. Naturally, it all depends on the number and living conditions. The above price is for a two-room number.
With decent conditions for comfort, but without excesses, on a family of three people (two adults and a child). The price for accommodation includes a magnificent, rich breakfast. Lunch and dinner - for an additional fee. You can at the hotel (restaurant with a wonderful kitchen, but expensive). The best solution is to eat in a cafe, which mass on the territory of the ski resort, there are even on the tracks (lifts are organized to them). Nutrition in such cafes is not at all expensive, but in the quality of the kitchen is not inferior to hotel restaurants. 35 euro "With the head is enough" to seek to see the whole family.
I highly recommend buying a local, tourist subscription (ski pass). Subscriptions There are two types, the first - "Seefeld Card". There is a subscription 29 euros - for a day or 56 euros lasting for 2 days. The presence of such a subscription "opens free doors" of any lifting zone area, in Rosshütte, Gschwandtkopf, Geigenbühel, BirkenLift. The second type is the subscription "Happy SKI" most economical for the price and more practical. There is such a subscription 83 euros for three days or 168 euros per week. . The test of such a subscription makes it possible to use more than 100 lifts and all sorts of tracks in the tales of 200 kilometers,
Almost in all ski areas of the resort.
In addition to skiing, there is plenty of establishments in the ski resort where you can spend time well. Pools
In a complex with sauna and magnificent parilots, a wonderful thermal complex is opened, there is an indoor rink - by the way, very popular among holidaymakers. Rink completely free,
There are always a huge amount of those who want to ride, so there is not enough inventory. It is necessary to take a queue or take with you (from the house) skates.
The rental of equipment is almost the same everywhere, in all positions of the rental and is not more than 20 euros per skis and sticks. Equipment of excellent quality, very rarely come across "brought" skis, especially with defects. Safety at the resort here is very responsible. There were cases of small damage to the inventory, so in the rental points (without conversations and any surcharge) change to a new set.
In a word - great.
The rest is remarkable, even with children, no discomfort.
