Sölden
Sölden is certainly one of the top 5 international ski resorts in Austria. The town itself
stretches for more than 2km along the valley floor with traditional Tyrolean-style buildings
situated on both sides of the river and along the main road. It is a vibrant resort with a
great atmosphere. With more runs than Chamonix and Kitzbühel, Sölden has a lot to offer.
The annual opening World Cup Ski race is hosted on the Rettenbach glacier every October.
There are countless restaurants, bars and shops along the main street and a sports centre
with indoor adventure pool, public sauna, indoor tennis courts and bowling. The après-ski is
world-renowned with numerous pubs and clubs offering live music and DJs.
