Out of curiousity fanny, how much could they rent out skis for a season. I would have thought it would be prohibitively expensive and better off getting your own.

I really don't know, they'll have to go in and ask but either way they'll be in the right shop to get sorted ;-)

Hi folks,
I was in Soll three times before but always on packages trips. For the last few years I have arranged a 4 day ski trip for 10-12. We've done Mayrhofen and Kirchberg and we are looking at Soll this year. A good few of our group have been to Soll so they know the area.
I have sent off loads of emails to hotels and got an offer back from Hotel Austria. Does anyone know anything about this hotel. It doesn't get great reviews on Tripadvisor.
Thanks!

2 Lads from our group stayed there last year on a half board basis. They seemed pretty happy with it for the week. Even ate there 5 out of the 7 nights. I've also had a few beers in the bar which is nice and its connected to Pub Austria which is a bit old but still a fine bar. I think they said the rooms were ok but like on most ski holidays they were only there to put the heads down.

I am determined to get over to Soll this coming season, i have been pushing my friends to go over for ages and we've always ended up elsewhere! Will probably aim for a late trip next March though as it's Whistler and Baker Mountain for me this Christmas

Yeah it's central, has a bar that shows the rugby, does exactly what it says on the tin- go for it!

Welllll, this year's gonna be a bit different...!

Remember when I joked about setting up a ski wedding business?! Well I've only gone and done it! Fannymagee is now a wedding (and funeral) celebrant, and I've a few bookings in already for this winter- which will cut back on my skiing time considerably..!

But on the upside, it's going really well and I LOVE it all, so if anyone fancies a ski-slope wedding, hit me up!! I'll be able to legally solemnise from July 2016 too, so am planning to be well sorted for season 2016/17.

So buckle up, pretty little Austrian ski slope churches- HERE I COME!! :-)

That's a great idea! Well done, and hope it takes off. It's a good niche and something unique, fair play for finding something that keeps you near the snowy peaks

Thanks! I think in reality the reverse might happen because there is a huge demand for legal Solemnisers over here at the moment- and that's before the Equality weddings have come on stream! So I'll be fitting my skiing in between my weddings, but I'm not complaining!! Happy days :-)

Have booked Soll for New Years can't wait. As a relative newbie can anyone tell me what is best travel. We are flying into Munich, would I be best getting train or taxi (there is 10 adults in total).
Also would we be best booking ski gear before we go with a local Soll Shop (as New Yrs might be busy)???

For 10 people you'd prob be as well booking taxis with fourseasons.de, and you'll have no prob getting gear when you get there, but no harm booking in advance as you say, Snow and Fun or Edinger are the best depots to rent from, you'll get the websites on google or the first post on this thread. new Years is AMAZING!! You'll love it :-) xxx
