Set in the beautiful Wildschnau Valley, Niederau is an ideal destination for anyone looking to ski on a budget.
The ski area has more than doubled in size in recent times, thanks to its connection to Alpbach, creating the 'Ski Jewel,' one of the Top 10 ski areas in the Tirol.
A network of free ski buses (with guest card) links all the Ski Jewel resorts. It is ideal for beginners and has superb opportunities for intermediate skiers. There is a snowboard arena in Niederau as well as a fun park in nearby Auffach.
Non-skiing activities include a 5km long toboggan run, hiking trails and sleigh rides.

Your Resort Managers
Ella Dunne
Hey! I'm Ella, and I’m so excited to welcome you to wonderful Niederau & Westendorf. Originally from Dublin, I started skiing from a young age in Italy, and my love for both adventure and the slopes eventually brought me to Austria. I’ve always had a deep appreciation for beautiful scenery and nature, and I’m thrilled to be surrounded by it every day here and get to show you too! Whether it's the crisp mountain air, breathtaking views, or the inedible skiing conditions, there's no place like it. I’m here to greet you upon arrival and help with anything you might need, big or small. My goal is to make sure you have an unforgettable experience, and I look forward to sharing this amazing wonderland with you.
Lindsey Cairns
Welcome to Austria, my name is Lindsey and I am originally from Scotland but our home has been in Austria for many years now.I started to ski as soon as I could walk in the Highlands of Scotland, however in search of fairer weather skiing, I came to Austria when I was 18. My love of skiing in winter and cycling in summer means that I know Austria pretty well and I want you to love it just as much as I do. Our excellent team is here to ensure you enjoy your well earned ski holiday, so please let them know if you have any questions. Our aim is that you return home happy, so let us deal with anything that gets in the way of that, when you are in resort. Your Resort Managers are here to help, so pop along and see them, you never know what tidbit of information you might learn. I wish you a fantastic holiday and Viel Spass auf den Bergen (have fun on the mountains).
