Location
Alpendorf, St Johann im Pongau
Close to Salzburg in the Ski Amade region of Austria.
The Ski pass gives you full access to over 250 lifts connecting 28 areas and towns, forming the second largest ski area in Europe.
Sono and I know the resort very well; Sono aka DJ Sharoop grew up in St Johann and I've been skiing there every year since I was 21. We can both help with route planning and piste advice and as usual Sono has put together a terrific daily apres-ski programme.
St. Johann im Pongau is very easy to get to:
❄ Fly to Salzburg.
❄ No.2 Bus to the Station (haubtbahnhof) costs about €3 or take a Taxi.
❄ The train to St. Johann im Pongau takes about an hour and costs about €15. It's a VERY pretty journey.
❄ Taxi from the station to the hotel takes about 15 minutes. We've negotiated a deal with one of the local taxi firms (we'll let you know the contact details nearer the time).
❄ If there are a few of you together you could also get a Taxi all the way from the airport. I think it's about €160 for a minibus.
Accommodation
The Hotel Stern
Beautifully located, half way up the mountain with spectacular views along the valley and over the rooftops of the town far below. We can ski-in and ski-out and once the lifts are closed we pretty much have the whole place to ourselves.
NOW FULLY BOOKED but we have a second hotel...
The Alpendorf Akivhotel
ROOMS STILL AVAILABLE
Located 50m from the Gondola lift at the bottom of the hill.
It's owned by the same family as The Stern and even though it's a little bit more expensive it's also a bit more delux and has a REALLY nice spa and indoor pool.
The Sundown Sessions take place at The Stern, however The Alpendorf is only 5 minutes down the mountain and they'll be running an hourly shuttle service between the two during those afternoons when we'll be using the Stern Terrace.
