Forecast today: Rain/Snow shower
The town is lively and there are some very good après ski bars – which whilst they might not rival Mayrhofen or St Anton – are extremely popular after a long day blasting around the huge network of tree-lined Ski Welt Pistes.
The only slight issue here is that the access lifts are located a walk or a short bus ride away from the centre of the village – but the 500m walk is definitely worth it as the best accommodation, restaurants and bars are all located in Söll itself and not at the foot of the Hochsöll access gondola.
There is a small beginner zone at the foot of the Hochsöll gondola, but at the top of this there is a gentle plateau that is ideal for beginners – plus it is more snowsure than the slopes in the valley. Progression on to longer blues is slightly tricky here as the Hohe Salve mountain is the steepest part of the Ski Welt and most of the runs are rated red. We would recommend that less confident skiers or boarders should head to Ellmau or Scheffau to access the gentle blues at Brandstadl.
The rest of the area is a vast network of wide, well-groomed, tree-lined blues and reds. This makes it a great resort for bad weather skiing, especially as a lot of the lifts have protective bubbles and seat heating. The sense of travel is excellent, but it must be noted that the challenges for advanced and expert skiers are somewhat limited, unless there has been fresh snowfall
Söll is a pleasant, friendly village and is bypassed by the main valley road.
The chalet-style buildings do spread quite widely, but the main core is compact – you can explore it on foot in a few minutes. Here is where you’ll find the best restaurants, shops and bars so we’d recommend staying here in one of the family-run hotels, despite the walk required to get to the lifts.
As mentioned, the resort is also famous for its après ski bars, which are lively even by Austrian standards. Prices here are also lower than at some other resorts – especially the likes of Ischgl or St_Anton – so you certainly get a good amount of beer for your buck. Don’t let this put you off however if you are a family looking for a ski holiday, but perhaps nearby Ellmau may be a better bet.

After a pretty desperate season, bumper conditions finally – finally – arrive for Austria, as it experiences its first Nortstau event of the season through the middle of this week.
Unsettled conditions drifting in from the north will bring with it cold temperatures as the freezing line takes a long walk off a short pier; from a daytime high of 2,400m on Wednesday it will plummet to sea level by Friday morning.
These unsettled conditions will of course mean snow, with good snowfall hitting the Austrian Alps on Wednesday afternoon and continuing steadily until Friday morning; this will see around 45cm fall, particularly focused across higher ground as the freezing line works its way down the elevation chart steadily over this period. Around 25cm will fall on Thursday alone.
Expect the avalanche risk to increase over this period as this new snowfall sits on either wet ground, wet snow, or a spring freeze-thaw crust; plan your backcountry routes carefully, and check your local avalanche forecast before heading out.
Sun returns with gusto on Saturday, before the last few flurries of cloud and snow move in over Sunday and the new week.
