Check dates on SnowTrex
Prices per person from SnowTrex’s partner feed, checked 13 November 2026: the lowest price for that stay length in the 2026/27 season, with the lift pass where stated. That is usually a low-season week with every bed in the room or apartment taken; Christmas, New Year and February half-term weeks cost more, and SnowTrex shows the exact price once you choose dates and the number of people. Distances are from the property description. You book with SnowTrex on its site for your country: snowtrex.co.uk in English, or its German, Dutch, French, Polish or Czech site; we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.
Getting there: For Schmittenhöhe Zell am See, the ski area with the most stays here, transfers go to Zell am See; the main airport is Salzburg Airport (SZG), 94 km by road (about 1 h 35 min); a private transfer from there starts at €204 per vehicle. The packages don’t include the journey: compare transfers to Zell am See from all 6 airports.
Travelling from the UK? Standard travel insurance usually excludes skiing, and a GHIC won't pay for mountain rescue: compare winter sports cover.
What a ski holiday in Austria costs per person

What to know
Pick a resort close to an airport
On a short break, the transfer eats into ski time. Salzburg, Innsbruck, Munich and Geneva are all under two hours from many resorts. Check the transfer page for each resort.
Go midweek
Sunday to Thursday is quieter and often cheaper than a weekend, and the lifts are emptier.
Smaller resorts suit short stays
You won’t ski a giant area in three days, so a compact resort near the airport can be better value than a famous name further away.
Half board is the standard
Most Austrian ski hotels sell half board with a multi-course dinner, and many 4-star hotels have a pool and sauna. Lift passes are usually for the whole region (Ski Amadé, SkiWelt, Zillertal Superskipass).
