If you're looking for easy access to a less well-known, but large Austrian ski area, then Hochfügen is a great option.

With ski-in-ski-out access to the linked slopes with neighbouring Kaltenbach, there’s also maximum convenience and thanks to the resort’s altitude of almost 1500m, it is one the the most snowsure resorts in the region. The terrain tends to favour intermediate skiers and boarders, but there’s good beginner terrain immediately above the village and decent steeper terrain across on the way to Kaltenbach. Whilst travelling across you’ll also notice the quality of the lifts – the lift system is one of the best around.

The village itself is quiet and pretty small, but there is the alternative to stay down in Fügen too if you’re after more variety on the accommodation, food and bar front. Keep an eye out too on the latest developments in the coming months as there are well-developed plans to link the resort by lift to the local slopes of Fügen, expanding the ski area further.

Snow Overview

Austria

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!
