skiing in austria
Well, the Austrian summer's been and gone and, looking out of the window, there's fresh snow on the mountains and frost in the fields. And the first ski race is already history. Time then to be thinking about your Austrian ski vacation....
For those wanting to get a head start on building up their ski legs, there's a run-down on the main resorts which are having big winter openings in November here - and up-to-date news on how they are reacting to the current warm temperatures: Ski Season Opening Events.
