The jewel in the resort's crown is the Franz Klammer downhill run, which drops down almost 1000m from the summit to the valley and hosts World Cup races each season.

Away from this, there are over 100km of other slopes to explore, ranging from gentle blues to cruisey reds (over 75% of the slopes are rated red), but there is little in the way of off piste or real challenges for experts.

As famous as it is for skiing and the legacy of Franz Klammer, the resort is equally as famous for its spas and many visitors come here just to enjoy the healing thermal waters and fresh mountain air. There is a very good choice of accommodation, including lots of traditional family-run hotels. Getting there is easy, with links via Klagenfurt or Salzburg airports in Austria or Ljubljana airport across the border in Slovenia.

Snow Overview

Austria

Updated 24/03

After a pretty desperate season, bumper conditions finally – finally – arrive for Austria, as it experiences its first Nortstau event of the season through the middle of this week.

Unsettled conditions drifting in from the north will bring with it cold temperatures as the freezing line takes a long walk off a short pier; from a daytime high of 2,400m on Wednesday it will plummet to sea level by Friday morning.

These unsettled conditions will of course mean snow, with good snowfall hitting the Austrian Alps on Wednesday afternoon and continuing steadily until Friday morning; this will see around 45cm fall, particularly focused across higher ground as the freezing line works its way down the elevation chart steadily over this period. Around 25cm will fall on Thursday alone.

Expect the avalanche risk to increase over this period as this new snowfall sits on either wet ground, wet snow, or a spring freeze-thaw crust; plan your backcountry routes carefully, and check your local avalanche forecast before heading out.

Sun returns with gusto on Saturday, before the last few flurries of cloud and snow move in over Sunday and the new week.
