The village of Sölden and the surrounding area
Sölden town, or village, is a city with permanent residents, but of course, depends on the ski tourism. It is a genuine Austrian alpine village that has a long tradition of skiing. People have skied here for more than a hundred years, which has contributed to a well-developed ski resort not only for skiing but also for other fun activities, restaurants, bars and all kinds of festivals that are arranged. Sölden will also appeal to those travelers who wish to party all night long. If you are in search of a quite ski holiday, maybe with young children, consider staying outside of central Sölden.Solden is the largest resort in the area, but there are three nearby villages you can stay in during your visit: Hochsölden (2,090 m), Zwieselstein (1,470 m) and Vent (1,900 m).
If you choose to stay in Hochsölden you are very close to the ski slopes. There are many different types of accommodation, from guest houses to luxurious hotels. An advantage with Hochsölden is that there is very limited traffic.
If you are searching for a more peaceful ski resort, you might want to try out Zwieselstein. You are close both to Sölden and the nearby ski resorts of Obergurgl and Hochgurgl. Vent is also a more quiet option that suits families with children or couples who wish to reside in a more calm area. It is also a good starting point if you are a mountaineer heading out for excursions.
Other Activities
If you want to rest for a day or just do something else than ski, you can have a go at the lovely restaurants and after-ski locations.
