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 17/03
Spring conditions dominate across the Austrian Alps through this week, as high pressure brings fine, dry and bright conditions across the region. Temperatures will yo-yo in a typical spring freeze-thaw pattern, the freezing line dropping to 500m overnight but rising to just shy of 2,000m in the midday sun.
Cloud and more unsettled weather brings with it some snow through this weekend, the best of which will be in the east of the country; around 15cm will fall from Saturday into Sunday, but with the oscillations of the freezing line settling around 1,500 this will mean that this snowfall will favour upper slopes. Western areas will see around 5cm.
More unsettled weather is due for the new week, although it remains too far out to fully see how much snow, when and where.
