Skiing and Aprés Ski in Ischgl, Austria with DW’s Lukas Stege | Impressive Alpine Winter Landscape

If you’ve ever heard of Ischgl, then probably in connection with the Corona pandemic. The winter sports resort in the Austrian Alps was a kind of super-spreader hotspot at the beginning of the pandemic. Here, there is a tradition to go skiing and afterwards to party at the so-called après ski in cramped, sweaty bars. That’s how many vacationers became infected—and took the virus with them to their home countries. Is Ischgl’s reputation now ruined? And what has become of the après ski parties? DW’s Lukas Stege shows you the ski resort with its fascinating winter landscape. 00:00 Intro 00:58 Ischgl 01:14 Renting skis 02:53 Ski area 05:54 Snowshoe hike 09:50 Aprés ski bar Champagnerhütte (champaign hut) 11:50 Night sledding ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to DW Travel    / dwtravel   Would you like to find out more about DW Travel? ▸Website: dw.com/travel ▸Facebook: facebook.com/dw.travel ▸Instagram: instagram.com/dw_travel DW Travel is showing you the captivating world of travel.
