A trip to Austria is something that every skier should experience in their lifetime. The towering mountains and incredible snow are eye-catching, but it’s the deep-rooted ski culture that makes this corner of Europe so special. Park, freeride, and piste skiing all mix with welcoming villages and mind-melting food to create an atmosphere that we wouldn’t trade for the world.

There’s nobody better to show us around than Katie Burrell, who is sharing all the inside secrets on how to 'Ski Austria Like a Local' in this new series. 

In the newest episode, our lens shifts to SkiWelt Area. This massive piste-skiing paradise spans nine villages and two valleys, featuring over 174 miles of trails. What began as a community project to connect through skiing has turned into a modern, family-friendly resort. While much of Austria is known for its freeride terrain, SkiWelt is where you go to unwind and take in the joys of food and friends in between laps.
