Top 10 Best Ski Resorts in the World – Austria’s #1

If you are planning on your next skiing holidays make sure to check out the best Ski Resorts and Ski Towns in the world. As an American you would probably think about your own ski-resort with famous names like Aspen – but in fact Vail, Colorado (#9) is the only Ski Resort in the USA that made it under the top 10. Whistler Blackcomb Mountain from Canada made it under the top 10 as well. The remaining 8 Ski Resorts all come from Europe and nearly half of them from Austria. The small Country in the middle of the Alps is much bigger and cheaper than its small neighbour Switzerland with only 2 Ski Resorts in the ranking. Nevertheless Austria is delivering high value for its price.
