Ski ev'ry mountain

Article Abstract:

The ski resort of Schladming, Austria, offers many of the advantages associated with a large, linked ski area covering several mountains. New lift connections have been installed for the 1998 to 1999 season, ensuring that skiers can travel easily between the Planai, Hochwurzen, Reiteralm and Hauser Kibling peaks. The resort has a total of 115km of skiing on 51 pistes. Britons currently account for only 5% of visitors to the resort, but this will certainly rise as they become aware of its advantages.

A high point of the Alps

Article Abstract:

Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, does not attract many British skiers, even though it stages a blue-riband event in the World Cup racing series every year and has become a member of the Best of the Alps association. Moswin Tours is the only British tour operator offering skiing packages to Garmisch-Partenkirchen, but it is actually very easy to travel there independently. The resort has a number of different ski areas, and is also notable for its painted buildings.
