Pub/bar in Badgastein where English football is broadcasted?

by frederikranke

Are there any pubs in Badgastein where they show English football. I am heading for Bad Gastein in Easter and found out that Arsenal are playing Chelsea and Man U are playing Liverpool on March 22 2008, wouldn't like to miss that...

I cannot remember seeing any pub or bar of the kind you mention, but I noticed that all hotels, apartment hotels and even hostels have satellite TV. If you contact the hotel where you'll be staying you may find them willing to help you with the proper tv channel.

Travel Tips for Badgastein

Bad Gastein -a world-famous spa resort

by Tolik

Bad Gastein (Badgastein) is a world-famous spa resort that still retains all the flair of the Belle Èpoque. Located at an elevation of 840 – 1100 m (2757 – 3610 ft.), its emblem is the waterfall that flows directly through the center of town. It is not only Austria’s premier spa, but one of the great spa towns in Europe. It offers a wide range of sporting and leisure activities that are complimented by its celebrated thermal springs.

The local tourist industry began when Frederick, duke of Styria, came here in the 15th century for treatment of gangrenous wound. The duke was healed and word spread. Large spa hotels were built as early as the 19th century. Royalty and aristocrats flocked here to “take the water”. The thermal bath facilities as well as 170 hotels in the valley have a thermal spring connection. The radioactive water is used in both bathing and drinking cures for various complaints. Yes, there are a few public drinking fountains where you can taste the water!

The ski areas

by Tolik

The largest of the ski areas begins on the Stubnerkogel mountain above Bad Gastein and is more-or-less lift-linked, via the small Angertal Ski center, to the skiing on the Schlossalm above Bad Hofgastein. The highest ski area is the small sector above Sport Gastein which has a base at 1600 metres and a snow-sure top lift at 2685 metres on the Kreuzkogel mountain.

The off-piste trails here are particularly highly regarded. And after a hard day skiing the 250 KM (170 miles ) of trails on the Gastein Valley Pass, it's possible to bathe in the open-air, rock swimming pool complex serviced by the hot natural springs!

Nordic walking

by i-bella

I saw many people with the nordic walking sticks, but they did not use them in the right way.
Nordic walking can very good for health, but it must be done in the correct way. It is good to have an expert trainer to teach the fundamental steps. At least one lesson.
Beginners should do their first experiences on easy paths. The trick to find them in the Gastein region is to take from the Information office the free map "Wander - Lift & Bike Information" and search the paths that are marked "Laufstrecker", it means that they are good for running, so they are good also for nordic walking.

Liechtensteinklamm

by robertgaz

Liechtensteinklamm is a narrow gorge with walls up to 300m high which located in the Austrian Alps about 50km south of Salzburg.

The gorge is around 4km long and it was named after Johann II of Liechtenstein who had walkways built there in 1875.

Gastein Winter

by Free_soul

A ski area located at a height where you never have to worry about snow, a total of more than 200 kilometres skilfully prepared pistes. Great slopes, specially in Sportgastein. Some might find the afterski life a bit quiet though.
