The 80km of slopes mostly suit intermediates, but thanks to the plentiful snowfall and around 18km of marked off piste ski routes, this is also an excellent resort for advanced skiers looking for their powder fix.

With the option to base yourself either in the valley at Mellau (linked to the ski area via gondola) or in Damüls further up the mountain putting you right in the heart of the action, there is something for every type of guest.

Pros and cons

Fantastic snow record and plentiful powder
Great lift system serving varied runs
Hidden gem in the Austrian Bregenzerwald

Resort run to Mellau at low altitude
Mostly short runs with small vertical drops
Sunny orientation can lead to slushy lower slopes

On the Slopes

Although it is not the highest as it only tops out at 2050m, the microclimate provided by its location near the Bodensee on the northern edge of the Alps means it has one of the best snow records of any Alpine ski resort. An impressive and ever-improving lift system whisks skiers and boarders up to these snowsure slopes.

Beginners are very well catered for on the edge of Damüls itself and also at the top of the Mellaubahn gondola. Progression on to longer blues is good, particularly under the new Oberdamüls six-pack chairlift. Intermediates have a great choice of groomed runs, although longer routes are hard to come by – vertical drops of less than 500m dominate here. It is then during powder days when the resort and the marked ski routes come alive for advanced and expert skiers and riders, but even without fresh snow there are some decent blacks beneath the Suttis chair.

Getting to Damuls/Mellau

Friedrichshafen is the nearest airport and the drive takes just over an hour, with Memmingen airport is around an hour and a half away. With more regular flights than the former two, Zürich can be reached in around two hours, whilst Munich and Innsbruck are both two and a half hours away.

Friedrichshafen airport: 1 hour (driving)
Memmingen airport: 1.5 hours (driving)
Zürich airport: 2 hours (driving)
Calais: approximately 11 hours driving (560 miles)

Snow Overview

Austria

Updated 07/04

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.
