Europe travel advice needed
Hey everyone,
So here's the deal. I'm finishing up an 8-month work term over here in Europe, and will have the weekend of Dec 3,4 free for some travelling. I'm currently living in Bavaria, Germany, and would like to go and explore some mountain resort before I head home. So far during the summer I have seen St. Moritz, Interlaken, and Chamonix, so I think I'd like to go and see the Austrian Alps.
So, what I'm looking for is advice on where to go and what to see. I don't have access to a car, so all travel will have to be done with trains/buses. I was also thinking of the crazy idea of going and having a look at the possibility of doing some glacier skiing if there are any that are open around that time. So, does anyone know if there are any glaciers open in Austria on the first weekend of December?
One other problem is that I don't have any ski gear with me over here in Europe. So, does anyone have an idea of how much it would cost to rent everything? I'm talking the whole deal, pants, jacket, goggles, gloves, etc... Also, if anyone has done this, could you suggest some places to go for this equipment?
Thanks everyone!
