There you don't need a skibus - just walk to the slopes! More reasonably priced accommodation can be found in St Johann where hotels run a free shuttle bus. There is also a free ski shuttle bus that runs throughout the season from St Johann to Alpendorf. ==Skiing== Alpendorf serves as one of the gateways to the Salzburger Sportwelt, one of the five alliances that make up Ski Amadé, a network of connected resorts with over 870 slopes and 270 modern ski lifts. The resort, as a result of its location in the Eastern Alps has a good record for winter snow. There are lakes containing 30,000 cubic metres of fresh water which is used by the snow cannon which cover 95% of the slopes. Unlike resorts in France and America, Austrian ski resorts only use fresh water for making snow. No chemicals or bacteria are added. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alpendorf」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
