We don’t really know. But we’ve taken supporting photos of the Ischgl Alpine zoo this year just for good measure. Leilei, hurrah, or something along those lines!

THE TRISANNA MORAL COMPASS. TODAY: CAN I GO TO DINNER IN THE HOTEL IN A TRACKSUIT?

SHOVELLING SNOW

The fun park, better known as Ischgl Snowpark, is the highlight of Ischgl for snowboarders. But to make sure it’s really fun, it has to be shaped every day. How is it done? We watched Daniel, the shaper, at work.

WHAT TO DO WHEN THE LIFTS AREN’T WORKING

Okay, so the best of Ischgl is high up on the pistes. But what happens when the weather doesn’t play ball, when the lifts – and so the skiers, too – have to take a break because of heavy snowfall? It’s really not that bad, say the people we met down in the town. There’s more to Ischgl than the best ski slopes in world, after all.
