2 Trip Itinerary Day 1 - Kirchdorf in Tyrol, Austria "All roads lead to Kirchdorf! Make sure you ve booked your shuttle transfer from Munich, Innsbruck or Salzburg airports to this charming Alpine village in time for a meeting with your crew and set your snow itin'. Newbie or not, you'll nail it. " Day 2 - Kirchdorf in Tyrol Ready, set, shred. Kirchdorf, St Johann, Steinplatte, Fieberbrunn and Kitzbühel ski zones are in yodelling distance, you lucky duck. Runs range from ""this is a lovely smooth ride and look at the view!"" to exclusively for team Red Bull pistes. Any way you look at it, you're going to have a good time. Post-slopes, head indoors for an included session of après-ski. Day 3 - Kirchdorf in Tyrol Two days on the slopes and it's time to charge that GoPro; today you hit it like a local. Don't let your eyes fool you, the postcard perfection is for real. Take notes: our mountain guides are the piste de resistance. They know the mountains better than a mountain goat. The St Johann Ski Show will give you all the inspiration you need to try to carve it like the pros. St Johann Ski Show Guided mountain walk Day 4 - Kirchdorf in Tyrol The snow-capped hills (Alps, really) are alive with the sound of carving. You've got this down. Head out on the slopes and channel your inner Shaun White as you shoop shoop your way down Kirchdorf s best pistes. Worked up an appetite? A slab of Tyrolean ribs for tonight's sustenance will put back in the tank what you left on the mountain. Tyrolean ribs dinner Dinner Day 5 - Kirchdorf in Tyrol All this pow pow makes for sore legs and there is only so many energy drinks you can have in one day. Take the cable car up and let gravity do the work on the way down. Tonight, we feast on schnitzel in St Johann. Schnitz, yeah!

3 Dinner Optional activities: Snow bike Day 6 - Kirchdorf in Tyrol Feeling competitive? Join in a ski or snowboard race. Alternatively, 1.6 kilometres of fresh snow + a toboggan have your name on them. Hit up Wilder Kaiser to make tracks down the mountain. Eyes on the prize though, it ain t as easy as it looks. Tobogganing Day 7 - Kirchdorf in Tyrol How bout them views? With so much pretty to take in, you ll be excused for taking a few sneaky selfies. Say edelweiss! If your leg muscles can bear it, attack the slopes one last time for that final hit of powder or cheers to an epic week in one of the cosy pubs in the village. Go on, you deserve it. Day 8 - Kirchdorf in Tyrol Still so much stoke, but it s time to say goodbye. Swap s over breakfast before hightailing it back to the real world. *Tyrolean ribs night will be a Christmas dinner during Christmas week No need to bring all your gear. You can book everything you need on arrival skis, snowboards, helmets and boots. Then choose lessons (if you need them) and a lift pass (you'll probably need one of these). Easy Accommodation Club trips host our most eclectic types of accommodation. While hostels make up the majority of your overnighters you could also stay in hotels (free upgrade yeah!) or bungalows. The number of people to a room on Club trips will vary. For hostels (remember, the most common) you will have multi-share rooms and share with between 3 and 5 others while in hotels there will be twin or triple-shares (and the odd quad-room). Bungalows can be up to 4 people to a room. Please note: When staying on a Club trip, multi-share accommodation is single-sex and therefore couples should not expect to share a room.

4 Optional Activities On all trips we have arranged extra activities that we think will enhance your travel experience, but you have a choice as to whether or not you will participate. These are not included in the cost of your trip. They are usually organised on a group participation basis and should be taken into consideration when budgeting your spending money. None of the Optional Activities on your trip are operated by Topdeck, nor do they form part of your contract with Topdeck for your trip. Topdeck arranges the activity as an agent of the local supplier. Should you participate in any Optional Activities your contract will be with the local supplier and their conditions will apply.
