INSIDER TIPS!

Hans On, is our Mayrhofen insider….

We’ve signed him up to give us regular top tips about Mayrhofen (or “der Hoff” as insiders like Hans call our fave resort after Margate).

Over to Hans:

“Greetings from ze mountains, meine leiblings! Well ze snow is coming down like its Norwich, and it’s Hansy zeit! Meine second Über tip iz ‘ow to avoid injury in the mountains...just stay at home! English humour, ja? Ok, let’s be serious; vearing a helmet really is a wise move and reduces ze chance of serious head injury by 35%. Some shops rent them, others vill sell you one for a discounted price in April (as its late season and zey vant to get rid of their stock). You should also get in trim before you come out – or ‘ze mountains vill find you out’.  Another health tip is to stop ski-ing or boarding when you start to feel tired. Insurance companies reckon that around three quarters of all accidents occur late afternoon - so what better excuse to stop for a mountain schnapps and soak up ze sun? Vonderbar…literally!
