Tweet

With Easter falling late this year (18-21 April), it’s an ideal opportunity for those looking for the last great escape of the ski 2025 season to experience Ischgl’s late-season.

Longer daylight hours and milder spring temperatures in the stunning Austrian Alps create the perfect setting for sun-drenched ski days.

One of the few resorts where skiing continues into May, Ischgl’s high-altitude terrain and unique microclimate ensure excellent conditions long after other destinations have closed.

Ranked by Forbes as one of the top 10 ski resorts in the world and famed for its legendary après-ski scene, Ischgl offers an unbeatable combination of world-class skiing, entertainment and a vibrant après and party scene.

Founded in 1976, the five-star family-run Elizabeth Arthotel offers an unparalleled way to experience Ischgl’s extended ski season, making it the perfect setting for luxurious spring or Easter escapes.

With direct ski-in/ski-out access, a spa and rooftop infinity pool boasting breathtaking Alpine views, gourmet dining, fine wines and immersive art experiences, the hotel blends luxury, indulgence and the thrill of spring skiing.

Beyond the slopes, Ischgl celebrates 30 years of its legendary Top of the Mountain Concerts in 2025, marking three decades of world-class music and entertainment in the Alps.

This season’s Spring Blanc festival will feature global artists performing in spectacular mountain settings, with highlights including Shaggy (20 April), bringing his signature reggae and dancehall beats to the Top of the Mountain Easter Concert, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike (1 May), twice crowned the world’s number one DJs, and headlining the 30th anniversary event, and OneRepublic (3 May) closing the season with an unforgettable performance.

Ischgl is a skier’s paradise, offering 239 km of impeccably groomed pistes, high-altitude slopes, and one of the longest ski seasons in the Alps, running from November to May.

Known for its snow-sure conditions, the resort’s unique microclimate and elevations reaching nearly 2,900 metres ensure fresh powder well into spring.

With 45 state-of-the-art lifts providing fast access to the slopes, skiers can explore 78 runs, including descents stretching up to 11 km and a cross-border connection to Switzerland’s Samnaun region.

Guests at the Elizabeth enjoy an unrivalled location in Ischgl, with ski-in/ski-out access and an in-house ski shop staffed by expert advisors. The hotel is just a two-minute walk from the main cable car, offering seamless access to the pristine slopes.

After a day on the mountain, guests can indulge in a six-course tasting menu from Austrian head chef Thomas Zechner, paired with selections from a 7,000-bottle wine cellar, one of the most extensive in the region.

The rooftop infinity pool and spa provide the perfect retreat, offering relaxation with panoramic Alpine views.

Mirjam Aloys, Elizabeth Arthotel owner, says: “Late-season skiing in Ischgl is truly special – longer days, sun-drenched slopes, quieter runs, all create stunning conditions well into May. At the Elizabeth, we’ve designed every detail to complement this experience, ensuring that spring skiing and Easter breaks are just as unforgettable as the peak of the winter season.”
