| About The Resort.. |
|
 |
|
|
NeustiftNeustift Resort Neustift is a pretty Tirolean village with a little local area of slopes called Elfer. Hotels and food are good and there is quite a lot to do in the village including bowling, swimming and saunas. The Elfer slopes offer a narrow chain of lifts and runs from Elferhutte all the way down to the village. Many of the ski runs are red runs which is great for keen intermediates and fast progressing novices...however, for the more advanced boarders and skiers there is little to offer here in the way of a challenge.

Mountain Restaurants in Neustift  As with many mountain restaurants they all book up pretty quickly. The popular choices up on the glacier closer to Fulpmes are the self service restaurants at Eisgrat (it is due to renovated for 2010/2011) and Gamsgarten. If you would prefer table service then why not try the delicious food at the Zur Goldenen Gams. If you're after exceptional views...even more exceptional than simply being in the mountains then why not dine at Austria's highest restaurant, the Jochdohole - get there early! The unbelievable views mean that it can get crowded.
