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 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.
