Overall Guide : SKIING IN EUROPE AT ITS BEST-ALL LEVELS OF SKIING IS POSSIBLE HERE!! All the slopes are next to the town-you walk to the ski slopes. Nearby slopes are excellent. You can ski from one town to the next town. We ... Leggi tutto stayed at a self catering unit and the grocer store provided everything. When the snow is minimal in the other ski resorts in Europe, then Bad Gastein has surely got snow. I can recommend Bad Gastein as a top Ski resort-5 star.
