As part of the vast SkiWelt ski area, Hopfgarten is an excellent resort for intermediates and families keen to explore extensive linked pistes.
The lift system has seen significant investment in recent years and is now one of the best around, whilst significant upgrades to the snowmaking system have helped with the unreliable snow issues that plagued the resort previously. Almost 90% of the slopes are rated blue or red, making this one vast intermediate playground, but after fresh snow there’s some decent off piste on offer and beginners will enjoy the dedicated learning zones – just note that the slopes back down to Hopfgarten are rated red and downloading the gondola is recommended.
The town itself is fairly spread out along the valley – base yourself as near to the Salvenbahn as possible to have the quickest access up the mountain each morning. There’s a decent range of accommodation, including some good value family-friendly options. Getting here is easy, with the train or road transfer from Innsbruck taking only an hour.

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.
