It’s all about a quieter, more relaxed approach to apres ski, in Bad Hofgastein. The pedestrianised centre has a selection of good bars and restaurants, and for alternative après ski activities, you can head to the billiards hall or even do a spot of tobogganing.
A jaunt to the town’s famous Alpentherme thermal spa is a must. Take advantage of the water slides, saunas, Turkish baths and treatment rooms on offer and then head to the spa’s Ice Cube bar to enjoy a few drinks, and take in the spectacular vistas of Gastein Valley!
