Ski Resort Location
Alpbach together with the neighboring Reith, Oberau and Niederau is known as Ski Juwel Alpbachtal Wildschönau, or The Ski Jewel, whose 145 km of runs make it one of the largest and most varied skiing areas in Western Austria. Due to its location and relatively late time of development combined with strict building regulations, Alpbach has succeeded in sustaining its authentic Tyrolean character. In a television contest organised by Austrian television in 1983 Alpbach was even voted the Most Beautiful Village in Austria. It also hosts the Alpbach European Forum and for two weeks every year becomes the meeting place for planets leading minds, nicknaming it the Village of Thinkers.
