Europeanrail are promoting the Bergland Express direct to Austrian ski resorts such as St Anton, Kitzbuehel, Innsbruck and Zell am See. UK skiers and snowboarders can travel on the mid-afternoon Eurostar high speed train from London or Ashford to Brussels and then connect with the overnight ski train Bergland Express. They are also offering an eight day Ski Week in Kitzbuehel.
Kitzbuehel, is famous for the 'Hahnenkamm' downhill race which takes place in January each year, but it offers a wide range of skiing and non-skiers can enjoy the quaint town of 14th century painted medievel houses, or take a short trip on the train to Salzburg or Innsbruck.
