<p> The Gasteinertal is comprised of five ski areas spread
out between the three towns of Dorfgastein—the farming town, Bad
Hofgastein—the market
town, and Bad Gastein—the resort town creating 250 kilometers (155
miles) of skiable area that vies with the more known resorts like Kitzbühel and Innsbruck for top ranking amongst winter enthusiasts. </p>
<p> The little known
area is perfect for skiers who want to get away from the crowds
of major resorts. Bad Gastein and Bad Hofgastein are linked
areas with three mountains between them offering everything from gentle
nursery slopes for beginners, and long untouched runs both above the tree
line and through the area’s conifers for powder hounds. Dorfgastein’s
mountain, which lies at a lower altitude, can be easily accessed by inexpensive
taxis or by buses or trains, which are free for ski pass holders. Sportgastein,
the highest mountain in the area is also reachable by bus, train or taxi, and
offers some of the best <i>hors-piste</i> skiing
in Austria. </p>
