Where?

Auffach is nestled in the quiet Wildschönau region of the Kitzbuhler Alps. This beautiful valley has 4 villages-Niederau, Oberau, Thierbach and Auffach. Auffach lies right at the end of the valley.The Wildschönau ski area has recently joined with the Alpbach ski region under the new 'Ski Jewel' banner opening up even more pistes on the one lift pass. Located just 1 hour from Innsbruck and 90 minutes from either Salzburg or Munich airports, getting there is relatively easy.
