Westendorf
Prettiest of the SkiWelt villages, quieter than Söll with tree lined runs.
What to expect at Westendorf
Westendorf is the quiet, pretty village at the western end of the SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser-Brixental, Austria's largest linked ski area at 288 km. Unlike Söll or Ellmau it never got a modern lift-town core, so it kept its onion-domed church, its market square and its farmhouses. The lift out of the village goes to the Choralpe at 1,829 m and links across to the wider SkiWelt via a gondola into Brixen. Runs are largely intermediate and tree-lined, which makes for good bad-weather skiing, and after 4pm it stays deliberately quiet, the après scene is over the hill in Söll for anyone who wants it.
