Soll is the central resort on the Ski Welt circuit, one of Austria’s largest linked ski areas. Nine separate villages provide access to the ski arena that spans the Hohe Salve Mountains that protrude from the valley floor in between the Wilder Kaiser Mountains and the Kitzbuheler Alps. Two of the villages Westendorf and Kelchsau are not linked by lift although they are easily reached by bus.
Although the skiing can be extensive – due to its relatively low altitude the area can fall victim to warmer winter weather. However, that said the area has one of the most extensive snow making systems in Austria. This helps provide a descent covering of the artificial stuff as long as it remains cold. Another plus is that most of the riding is below the tree line so in bad weather you benefit from the protection afforded by the forest.
When conditions prevail the area is suitable for riders of all ability but particularly good for early intermediates and improvers who will find they can roam everywhere with relative ease.
