The slopes of Nassfeld are pretty, mostly tree-lined and served by a very good lift system that is dominated by fast 6-seater chairs and high capacity gondolas.
Most of the slopes are rated red, making this a paradise for intermediate and advanced skiers looking to cruise kilometre after kilometre of well-groomed runs. The jewel in the crown is the epic descent down to Tröpolach, which drops over 1200m of vertical to the valley floor. Unless there has been fresh powder, experts may find the ski area a bit limited, but there are a few blacks marked on the piste map. Look out for a new big connection to Pontebba over the border into Italy in the next few years.
Accommodation-wise, there are two main options. Families or those looking for maximum convenience should base themselves at Sonnenalpe, which has a decent collection of family run hotels and apartment buildings. The alternative is to stay at Tröpolach at the foot of the Millenium Express gondola – which has its own good selection of accommodation and dining options. Away from the slopes, the region is home to 300km of cross country trails, 150km of winter walking trails and if the Pressegger See in the valley freezes, great ice sports are on offer.

Ski Club Recognised: Environmentally Sustainable Resort
The Ski Club uses third party independent assessments and accreditation of ski resorts to determine a resort “environmentally sustainable” – more information can be found here.
Nassfeld has received certification from the Global Sustainability Tourism Council (GSTC) as a sustainable tourist destination, requiring the a destination to meet criteria across four areas, including sustainable management, socio-economic sustainability, cultural sustainability, and environmental sustainability.
The GSTC is a UN-affiliated body dedicated to enabling sustainable tourism around the world. GSTC certification is controlled by Vireo, an Italian for-profit certification and licencing organisation that manages several similar schemes. Nassfeld was awarded its certificate in 2021, which expires in 2024.

Austria’s crescendo to the 2025/26 season looks set to continue through this week, as cooler temperatures (at least compared to the rest of the Alps) brings with it a few last flurries of snow.
Spring freeze-thaw cycles will be in force, but the freezing line will drop to 2,000m overnight and rising up to 3,000m in the midday sun. This will settle slightly on Friday when a pocket of unsettled weather moves in; the west will see a few flurries, barely enough to register on the snowstake, with up to 5cm falling the further east you travel. With the freezing line being where it is, this will limit snowfall to higher ground.
A few more flurries are due into the new week, albeit it remains too early to tell exactly how much, when, and where will fall.
