An impressive lift system, dominated by fast 8-seater chairlifts and modern gondolas, serves a compact network of well-groomed slopes, most of which are also covered by snow machines.
The gentle blues at Loferer Alm served by the Family Express are some of the best for learning anywhere in Austria, with great progression on to the longer blues possible. There are also some sterner challenges for more advanced skiers and riders, but this is not really a resort for experts or those looking for extensive off piste.
The village is compact and pretty, with a decent selection of small family-run hotels to choose from. The town is bypassed by the main road (it is in a tunnel) so is nice and quiet, adding to the family-friendly nature of the resort. Lofer’s location near the German border ensures a very quick 45 minutes transfer from Salzburg or the option of a 2 hour drive from Munich.

Snow Overview
Austria
Updated 17/03
Spring conditions dominate across the Austrian Alps through this week, as high pressure brings fine, dry and bright conditions across the region. Temperatures will yo-yo in a typical spring freeze-thaw pattern, the freezing line dropping to 500m overnight but rising to just shy of 2,000m in the midday sun.
Cloud and more unsettled weather brings with it some snow through this weekend, the best of which will be in the east of the country; around 15cm will fall from Saturday into Sunday, but with the oscillations of the freezing line settling around 1,500 this will mean that this snowfall will favour upper slopes. Western areas will see around 5cm.
More unsettled weather is due for the new week, although it remains too far out to fully see how much snow, when and where.
