Forecast today: Clear skies
- Max temp: 2.2 °c
- Min temp: -6.1 °c
- Last snowed: Sun 11 Jan
The base is located at a snowsure altitude of 1580m, with slopes stretching up to over 2300m
This provides reliable ski conditions throughout the winter, especially now many of the runs are supplemented by snow machines. Most of the terrain suits intermediates, with wide open blues and reds dominating the piste map, but there are some steeper sections on the Olympic Downhill course used back in 1976.For more advanced skiers, the black off the Birgitzköfel is a real challenge and there are some great off piste routes on offer, particularly if you’re prepared to hike a little or strap on a pair of skins.
In terms of accommodation, there is the Hotel Olympia at the foot of the slopes and the historic funicular railway, but options are limited and the best place to stay is down in the village of Axams or in Innsbruck itself. This makes it a great resort to visit on a day trip, combining your trip with skiing at the likes of Kühtai, Fulpmes or Seefeld.

Snow Overview
Austria
Updated 30/12
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.
