When the nights draw in, the temperatures drop and the first snow falls on the peaks of the Nockberge mountains, you know it’s time to get excited. Are you already imagining yourself whizzing down the perfectly groomed slopes, mastering your first spins at the snowpark or simply sitting in a deckchair in the sun? Why wait until the season starts? You can already see it all in your mind’s eye. In this blog article, we share our 8 favourite ideas to get you in the mood for the ski season. Turn waiting into the fun part! We’ll show you how.

Transform your kitchen into a ski lodge and get your palate in gear – a culinary getaway guaranteed to get you excited.
3. Get your skiing equipment ready to go.
You’ll soon be best friends with your skiing equipment again. So it’s time to get them out of the basement and prepared for the big day. Does everything still fit? And what about the ski base and bindings? Are the edges of your skis sharp enough? You can check everything you need to keep in mind in our blog article on the start of the season. If your equipment is ready, you will be too when it’s time to get your skis on. All that’s left is to get set and go!
