Reith im Alpbachtal
A small hamlet above Brixlegg on the road to Alpbach, 5km away. It is just about possible to ski over to Alpbach if conditions are good - and its on the same lift ticket. There is a probably more convenient bus link anyway. A major attraction of the village is the 7km toboggan run down from the top of the chairlift.
