    Austria's Snowiest Winter Sports Destination



    Trip Captain: Matt Pitzer

    **Your Ultimate Winter Escape Awaits in Obertauern!

    Are you ready to carve your name into the freshest powder of the Austrian Alps? This season, our ski club is heading to the legendary "snow bowl" of Obertauern, a high-altitude paradise where epic adventures and unforgettable memories are waiting to be made. Picture yourself gliding down 100 kilometers of pristine, interconnected slopes under a brilliant blue sky, with breathtaking 360-degree views of the Salzburg region. Obertauern isn't just a destination; it's a ski-in, ski-out dream, scientifically proven to be Austria's snowiest winter sports resort, guaranteeing perfect conditions from November all the way to May. 


     Get ready for an experience that will redefine your love for the mountains.

     **Ski in the Footsteps of The Beatles!

    Beyond its world-class skiing, Obertauern boasts a unique pop-culture pedigree. This is the very resort where The Beatles filmed the iconic snow scenes for their 1965 movie, Help.   You can ski the same slopes that John, Paul, George, and Ringo made famous, and even snap a photo with the statues and monuments dedicated to their time here.  After a day (or half-day) of channeling your inner rock star on runs for every skill level—from gentle nursery slopes to the legendary Gamsleiten 2, one of Europe's steepest pistes—we'll dive into Obertauern's famous après-ski scene including the umbrella hut with the famous Beef Back Ribs. 


     It’s a trip that blends incredible skiing with a touch of rock and roll history.

     **Don't Miss Out - Your Spot is Waiting!

    Spaces for this incredible journey to Obertauern are limited and filling up fast! This is your chance to join fellow ski and snowboard enthusiasts for a week of pure alpine bliss, where convenience meets exhilaration. With everything from lift access to social events organized, all you need to do is pack your gear and your sense of adventure. Don't let this opportunity to experience one of the Alps' most beloved and snow-sure resorts slip away. Visit our club website or contact a trip organizer today to secure your spot and start counting down the days to an unforgettable winter getaway
