Herewith a small post, that I will probably revisit later, about my Ski plans for the upcoming season 2006-2007. See the below Google Map indicating the four places that I am most likely going to visit.
Can’t wait to start skiing again! As I said, I’ll probably do a another post describing the exact plans and updating the map with images and the like.
Update: (2007-06-16). The one in Val Thorens didn’t pull through, as it was really close to the one in Zermatt and proved to be logistically improbable. Anyway, 3 ski trips in one season is really helping your condition on the slopes. Definately recommended!

For the past 6 or 7 years I have gone to Westendorf, Austria with friends and family for a week long wintersports holiday. Westendorf not being the biggest city ever we quite know the place and always book well in advance. This year however we couldn’t book the 9 rooms we needed in one of our usual places. Which brought up the question of “which other appartments are there for rent and how close are they to the slopes?”.
I remembered finding a map/photograph of Westendorf with all the appartments, hotels, apres-ski bars painted on it. I tried to find it again, but couldn’t. Booted up my really old laptop and found it there. So, in order to make sure both I and you will be able to find it again in the future, I’m hosting a copy here on the site. Go check out the map of Westendorf.
Update: Seems that this year we will be staying a week at Mesnerwirt, Westendorf. (Impression video’s: outside, room, wellness, restaurant - we have aten here a lot over the last couple of years, great atmosphere!, and the (in-)famous Kellerbar!)
Update 2: Found some footage on YouTube of places where I have been. See:
