About The Moss
The Moss is a 16-suite hotel in Obergurgl, one of Austria's highest and most reliably snow-sure resorts. Designed for groups of up to four, the property sits within easy reach of the slopes and offers a well-considered set of facilities that remove the usual friction from a ski holiday. The wellness area on the lower level houses a sauna, steam room, and infra-red cabin — a practical asset after a full day on the mountain. Ski and boot storage is located on the same floor, meaning equipment stays organised and out of the way. The hotel also operates a restaurant and bar on site, so there is no obligation to venture out in the evenings if conditions are cold. For those new to skiing, the ski school meeting point is a two-minute walk from the property, which simplifies mornings considerably. Balcony and garden access add outdoor space, and the inclusion of a swimming pool rounds out the on-site offering. Obergurgl's compact, car-free village character means the hotel sits at the centre of a genuinely walkable resort.

Location
Obergurgl sits at 1,930 metres in the Ötztal Alps, making it one of the most snow-reliable destinations in the Austrian Alps with a season that regularly runs from November through to May. The Moss is positioned close to the main ski lift, giving straightforward access to the Obergurgl-Hochgurgl ski area and its 112 kilometres of piste. The village itself is compact and largely pedestrianised, so the hotel, slopes, and resort amenities are all within comfortable walking distance of one another. The ski school meeting point is two minutes on foot — a meaningful convenience for families or mixed-ability groups. Innsbruck Airport is the most practical arrival point, approximately 90 minutes by road.

Obergurgl, often affectionately known as the 'Diamond of the Alps', is an internationally renowned premium ski resort located at the end of the spectacular Ötztal Valley in Tyrol, Austria. Sitting proudly at an altitude of 1,930 meters, it is one of Europe's highest parish villages. This exceptional elevation grants the resort an impeccably long and snow-sure season stretching from mid-November to early May, making it a reliable favorite for discerning skiers seeking prime conditions. Linked seamlessly to the even higher neighboring hamlet of Hochgurgl via the Top Express gondola, the combined ski area offers 112km of flawlessly groomed, wide pistes. The atmosphere in Obergurgl is distinctly upmarket yet traditionally Austrian. It has managed to avoid the pitfalls of mass tourism and raucous party crowds, opting instead to cultivate a sophisticated, family-friendly environment characterized by premium ski-in/ski-out hotels, excellent culinary experiences, and relaxing spa culture.
The Obergurgl-Hochgurgl ski area offers 112km of beautifully groomed, sweeping pistes that are an absolute dream for intermediate cruisers and carving enthusiasts. While it is predominantly a blue and red piste paradise, beginners benefit from quiet, sunny nursery slopes, and experts can find thrilling lift-served off-piste descents around the Hohe Mut.
The Ötztal Valley is one of Austria's premier alpine destinations, flanked by dramatic 3,000m+ peaks and numerous glaciers.
