Kappl Ski
 Only a 15 minute drive from nearby Ischgl; the ski resort of Kappl is a chilled and relaxed family resort. Close by is Ischgl should you fancy a night out; Ischgl attracts many groups that are keen for party times and apres ski just as much as the skiing and snowboarding.
Kappl is a 15 minute bus ride down the valley from Ischgl and tourism here is very much a family affair in this beautiful village. Have a look at the information on nearby resort Ishchgl. |
