On the Slopes
If you choose to ski Neustift, unbelievably the season begins in October and lasts through to early May. In the immediate Neustift ski resort area there are a good number of beginners' slopes to help novices learn as well as a ski instructor school and two nursery areas. For those more experienced skiers and boarders there's also a good range of intermediate and expert slopes. However, most people who head here tend to travel over to the five ski resorts that are located within close proximity and of course the Stubai glacier. With one of the world's biggest vertical drops, you will be spoilt for runs.
Transportation on the slopes of Neustift is easy since there are five gondolas and seven chairs which move a large number of skiers on a regular basis. Snowboarders also enjoy the area due to its good snow park and great vertical drop of 1400m that's available right across the slopes.
Ski Area
If you ski Neustift im Stubaital you are also in the ski region of Stubai SuperSki.
Off the Slopes
While the Neustift ski resort is quieter than other resorts in Austria, it is the liveliest spot in the Stubai valley so if après ski activities are important to you during your holiday it is the best place to stay. The village is somewhat commercialised and offers plenty of restaurants, bars, and pubs for those who want to get out and enjoy themselves but has managed to hold onto its rustic charm at the same time. You may also want to take part in ice skating or a snow shoe trail to explore the beauty of the Stubai glacial area.
Who's it Best For?
Great for beginners and intermediates and of course anyone who has ever wanted to ski a glacier!
