It was a fantastic holiday in a beautiful location. The tour leaders were supportive and encouraging, very knowledgable about the sport and the location.
When I finally stopped freaking out because I couldn't control my speed!
We had two group leaders Eric and Andy, who were both fantastic. Excellent instruction for both beginner and experienced skiers...also very patient.
If you're expecting Italian food in Dobiacco you won't find it unless you go out to specific restaurants.
Lovely skiing, carefully planned (very little climbing for cross country by careful use of busses) with great leader.
Controlling a long tricky descent perfectly!
Great fun to be with.
Go if you like tracks, tracks and more tracks. If you prefer off track, go to Norway.
A great holiday – comfortable hotel, stunning scenery and a great opportunity to try out cross country skiing.
Excellent when out skiing - I was a complete beginner and he made me feel very confident and safe. Excellent choice of routes and activities - we all learned lots and saw some great areas.
You get very hot when cross country skiing so don't need loads of thick ski clothes - layers are best. Some people in the group had paid extra for a deluxe room - this turned out to be no different than the ordinary rooms (just an extra table), so it isn't worth paying the extra.You don't get a free day but some of us chose to spend a day snowshoeing / walking - this was a lot of fun and well worth doing if you want a change from skiing one day.
Great skiing, great guide, great group and loads of food!
Skiing on the last day with the gang with fab snow and no fear of the downhill!
David was a great coach and leader. Very relaxed and chatty. Always giving you tips on your posture as he whizzed up and down the group. He got the group to bond, he adjusted his teaching for the less confident and the experienced, and had a knack for getting us to the bus stop 20 seconds before the bus arrived (did he like the bus company so much that he bought it?!)
Do the exercises you get sent - much less pain in the first few days! Go for the fish options at the hotel - veggie options aren't the best.
Instruction, ski-tours and general coordination and atmosphere of the holiday were all great. The leaders, the group and the weather were all fantastic, so overall it was a brilliant holiday again. The hotel however was a little tired.
The weather was very sunny, and the snow was fast retreating. However the leaders were able to ensure we made the most of the conditions.
Both Group Leaders, David and Albert, were great and ensured everyone made progress and had a great holiday.
Lovely very comfortable hotel run by a family creating a friendly, home like atmosphere. Sarah and Rita are also fun and helpful – making me (a single traveller) wanting to go back year after year. Great group company, endless trails, wonderful scenery and a five course evening meal to finish the day off. Just great!
The sheer beauty of the Dre Cime and the Fichleintal and being the first to ski on freshly groomed trails.
Inspiring, motivational, fun and pitched everything exactly at the right level for each member of the group to progress them to their best. Such a lovely person all round.
Just go and try it!!! You can do it.
This is our 5th visit to Dobbiaco and it hasn’t lost its appeal.
Visit to Platzwiese and an icy downhill descent on the Military Road.The downhill descent from the Kreuzgergpass to Padola, bus back and the downhill descent to Moos.
We were both part of Gareth Buffett's Group 2.We thought he struck the optimum balance as regards flexibility, rest breaks, challenging terrain and teaching. We thought the latter was particularly good and picked up several tips as regards the double pole kick and the basics of skating.
There are numerous options for shortening the day (we didn't) should travellers so require, as the area is served by a very good, reliable bus service.Stops for lunch and afternoon tea are rarely disappointing as regards the quality of available food and high standard of restaurant cleanliness and ambience.
A wonderful week learning to cross country ski in a beautiful location with great food and accommodation, great company and a fantastic group leader
Over breakfast on the last day I thought I was ready to go home, having had a great week but feeling tired. However, everything I had learnt that week finally came together and I had a fantastic day skiing. That evening I wished I was staying another week!Seeing everyone in our beginners group fastly improve by the end of the week.
David Davies was a brilliant group leader. He had the combination of being a great skiier and a great teacher. Luckily for me, he had more confidence in me than I did and ensured I persevered with snowploughing down hills until I finally managed to control myself! He knows the best places to ski and stop for refreshments and can then entertain everyone with some very funny stories.
Take plenty of layers because you soon warm up when cross country skiing. To relieve aches and pains, make use of the sauna but also take some Deep Heat, it really helps.
This was the second year in a row for me in Dobbiaco, so I already knew what to expect. We set off for a different route each day, enjoyed varied terrain, weather and snow conditions. The routes were well planned, with cozy places to stop for refreshments, and spectacular scenery. Comfortable accommodation, friendly staff and delicious food at the Tschurstschenthaler Hotel, and a superb leader, Albert Callewaert.
I was pleased with the hotel, my room was comfortable and not overheated. The food was varied and plentiful. The skiing was just perfect for beginners with gradually more challenges each day. I liked the fact there was a stadium in town where you could go and practice. The loipes were well maintained. January was a good time to go as it wasn’t so crowded in the loipes as it would be later in the season.Lost half a stone in one week and ate all I liked Hope to return in 2013.
The sceneryThe long gentle descentsThe progress everyone made
Calm, helpful and had lots of cross country experience
Invest in a good pair of gloves if you go in January Take more money than you think you will spend as with any holidayCareful of loss of control at the end of the day when you are tired- the leader had to help me out of a pile of deep snow near to Villa Bassa Station where we finished one day
