Check out the Ski Club’s holidays available in this resort
Situated to the west of Badgastein, the slopes in Heiligenblut are quiet and are mainly blues and reds in two areas. The 12 lifts include three gondolas and serve 55km of groomed runs, though the extensive freeride terrain is the real draw. Due to the altitude, the resortโs six freeride arenas offer great snow for much of the season and the lack of crowds mean the slopes stay untracked for longer.
The ski area has a decent network of blues and reds, dropping down from the Schareck mountain at 2604m. Even higher slopes can be found on Hochfleiss, where the long snowsure run 11 drops from 2902m right down to 1809m. Beginners will want to stay in the village, where two gentle learning areas can be found.
The main attraction however is the off piste terrain. After fresh snowfall, the lack of crowds means that plenty of excellent powder can be found within the lift served area โ powder that typically remains untracked for longer than in most resorts. Touring equipment and a mountain guide will then get you into some of Austriaโs finest backcountry โ book on with Ski Club Freshtracks to do exactly this.
This is a quiet and pretty resort, set at just over 1300m at the foot of the ski area. It is instantly recognisable by the stunning church in the centre of town and the towering Grossglockner behind it. Small, family run hotels dominate the accommodation on offer โ so expect to come here to ski and relax, this certainly isnโt an Austrian party town.

Updated 02/05
The weekend starts mild across the region, with the freezing line ticking up to 4,000m. This sits under a layer of cloud cover, which will bring with it precipitation; this will fall as snow in many areas, as the freezing line drops from this peak as low as 1,500m over the course of the weekend.
Western areas will see around 12cm of snow, with easterly and southern areas seeing perhaps a foot on Monday along, with another 10cm before and after. This will remain across higher ground, as the freezing line doesn’t dip below 2,000m during this snowy period.
Unsettled conditions continue over the course of this week, with more snow on the way in parts.
Thus concludes our snow overviews for the 2024/25 season; thank you to everyone who has tuned in, and we look forward to seeing you again next season!
