Forecast today: Generally clear
The village itself is a very convenient base, with lots of accommodation a very short walk from the Maiskogel gondola. There are some decent bars and restaurants too, plus there’s the option of visiting Zell am See which is very nearby and home to livelier après ski and a bigger choice of dining options. The drive from Salzburg is quick, taking less than an hour and half.

Things finally turn the corner for Austrian resorts this week after predicted snowfall stays away over the New Year period. Continuing high pressure means 2026 dawns fine, dry and bright, however more unsettled conditions and snow move in over this weekend.
Starting on Friday, steady snowfall will blanket almost all areas in Austria, with 15cm down at St Anton each on Saturday and Sunday. A freezing line staying around 1,000m means this will hit most elevations. Further south and east, this will bear the brunt of snowfall for the region and up to 2ft could be expected down on Sunday and into the new week.
Things remain cold and snow as the new week begins, with plenty more snowfall on the way.
