If you're looking for a sense of travel whilst on your skis and the chance to ski kilometre after kilometre of pristine, snowsure pistes
then Gerlos is a great choice. It’s perhaps a little unknown to the UK market, but the slick lift system (it is has one of the best in the Alps) accesses a great selection of groomed terrain, as well as some decent off piste pockets too. The location of Gerlos is ideal as it sits at the heart of the ski area, with great access to Zell am Ziller to the west and Königsleiten to the east.
Gerlos is a lively but small resort and is located an hour from Innsbruck, making this a great weekend destination. Access was transformed from the village up to the slopes in 2016 following the construction of the Dorfbahn Gerlos gondola, a slick 10-seater lift with heated seats, which saves the bus ride to the Isskogelbahn in the morning.

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.
