The Ischgl ski area is big and impressive, has a huge lift system and continues to grow.  There is a big beginners area around the mid station at Idalp and from here the ski lifts fan out across a massive area. Idalp also has numerous lockers to leave equipment for those downloading on the lift, and a helicopter and medic station to give a bit of comfort to those using the huge, neighbouring pipe and park. Many of the runs away from Idalp are intermediate or difficult but it is the off-piste that Ischgl is famous for and as far as you can see, vast bowls await the next dump of snow.

It is hard to argue that the mid season après ski scene in Ischgl can be matched anywhere, (including beyond Austria, the best country for après ski). The après ski action in Ischgl starts in slope-side bars, sometimes on the mountains and rumbles on till late in the numerous après ski lodges in the resort centre. As well as the ski boot dancing and remixed classics, there are nightclubs, table dancing and high end restaurants.
