Serviced Apartments in Obertauern

Austria is a very photogenic country and has been used in loads of films and Obertauern is no exception, as it featured in the iconic Beatles film Help! Stills from the film and candid shots of the Beatles relaxing are part of an exhibition in the town of one hundred years of skiing in the area. Staying in an Obertauern serviced flat/apartment will give you the chance to re-tread the steps – or perhaps you should say the ski tracks – of the Fab Four.

Obertauern is popular with tourists in both summer and winter and so there is no need to book your holiday here strictly in the ski season. The high altitude means that it is very cold, but the sunshine is very clear and bright, with no cloud or pollution to spoil it. Birdwatchers, whether diehard twitchers or interested amateurs, will get a lot out of an Obertauern holiday rental if the bluethroat is seen locally. This bird is migratory and doesn’t linger long in the area, so it is always a treat to see it.

One thing that competent skiers must try when in an Obertauern service apartment is night skiing. This is not available everywhere as much depends on the terrain and of course safety procedures, but it is a magical experience. It is almost as amazing to watch as to do, as the skiers come down the mountainside in a pool of light, so even if you are a non-skier renting an Obertauern holiday apartment for reasons other than skiing, it will still leave a lasting impression.

Although not at first sight a cheery subject, the Cemetery of the Nameless is somewhere you must visit whilst staying in an Obertauern self-catered apartment or aparthotel. It was originally begun as a burial place for travellers who died whilst trying to cross the mountain pass and who had no identification – either by accident or design – and a lot of stories are hiding behind the names on the stones. It is now the town cemetery, so is still in use.

The après ski in Obertauern is very casual and laid back. Although it is obviously possible to get dressed up and spend a night on the town, the whole ambience is more one of having a good time after a hard day enjoying yourself! An Obertauern holiday let will let you have a nice relaxing holiday day or night.
