ESN Austria’s A.L.P.S
15-17 December 2017 in Kitzbühel Austria
❄ ❄ ❄ ❄ ❄ ❄


Do you know what Austria’s national sport is? Damn right, it’s skiing and it would be a pity to do an exchange in our beautiful country without at least having tried to balance yourself on two wooden sticks (or one if you’re on the dark side with the cookies a.k.a. you prefer snowboarding). However, for us Austrians spending a day on the snowy slopes is only part of the skiing experience. When the ski lifts” close around 4pm, Austrians often passionately engage in something called Aprés Ski – something you surely would not want to miss out on!

From 15-17 December 2017 exchange students from all over Austria will gather in Kitzbühel/Tyrol, one of Austria’s most famous skiing places, to spend an incredible weekend full of skiing, party and fun!

Let us show you how we ski!
