How to go on a skiing holiday in Austria!

3 days ski pass in Idre costs 1010 SEK and in Sälen about 1400. I have never rented skis so I do not know. A little difficult to compare prices really. You get so much more skiing in the Alps.

Although the days of skiing holidays are over for me, it was nice to "come along" to Austria, and it's good that there are a number of choices depending on what you want to do and what it may cost.

You really match the surroundings there with your nice, fluffy hats! A great picture of you!

When it comes to skiing holidays, I think charter is preferable. All arranged with flights, transport, lift passes, ski hire etc.
Now there are good trips where we rent all six of us in an apartment hotel. The others go from Stockholm by plane. We get a deduction for the flight, so we get to the resort on our own (alternatively we take the bus transport from their "Alpine airport"). Works great for us.
Then we ignore all the events that the charter organiser has, as we want to spend time with each other 🙂 .

It has been great to join the ski trip to Austria.
I know that lift passes in the Alps are often about 2500-3000 SEK for a week, can vary a bit according to high and low season and which resort you choose. A popular resort with a larger lift system (where you are out for a whole day and do not have to go down the same slope) can be more expensive. Know that we usually when we went to the Alps counted with a total of about 14 000 / person / week (usually more) and then we have had equipment. Fits quite well with the prices you have. Sometimes it will be cheaper with group trips where everything is included.
Of course, a trip to the Alps is more expensive than a trip to the Swedish mountains, but they are two different experiences. When it comes to hotels, lift passes and ski hire, the price differences are not so great. A weekly pass in Åre costs just over SEK 2000 and ski hire for seven days about SEK 1200. If you go to a hotel, an equivalent to the one you stayed at usually costs more in e.g. Åre.
The range of cabins in Sweden is large and an alternative that many people choose to reduce the price. (The cost of a week in the mountains is very high, even in Sweden, in a hotel with half board for a family. The difference is if there are two people travelling. )

Big kudos for the first picture - it's absolutely gorgeous!
Yes, it is not cheap, especially since the stay was so short. I have never stayed in a hotel in either a Swedish or a foreign ski resort. Have not rented skis and equipment either.
But one thing is clear - you cannot compare the Swedish mountains with the Alps, neither in size nor temperature. I mean, how much fun is it to go down a mini-hill in Åre/Duved/Sälen in 15 degrees below zero compared to driving on a "motorway" that is several kilometres long in a few degrees below zero and getting a sunburn in the process.
If you want to taste it, you have to pay for it;-)

Peter can feel very proud of the first picture, so heavenly nice, it is completely speechless. Congratulations.
And you look great in your winter clothes, my dear.

Exciting, I'm not a winter person but Austria looks undeniably lovely.
