The Ski Optimal region is unfortunately overlooked by many British skiers,
who drive on by to visit Mayrhofen or Zell am Ziller a little further up the valley. But with a great lift system, over 85km of well groomed slopes and ambitious plans to link the resort to nearby Fügen with a big 3S gondola, Kaltenbach is a real Austrian heavyweight. The terrain is well suited to intermediates, but there’s good steeper slopes up high and scope for off piste too.
The town itself is small and well located at the foot of the two access gondolas, which provide very quick access up to the slopes in the morning. It is a small place, but a few accommodation options and a decent selection of restaurants and bars, but don’t come here expecting a huge number of options.
Getting here is easy, with quick access from Innsbruck – the drive takes less than an hour.

Snow Overview
Austria
Updated 30/12
Things finally turn the corner for Austrian resorts this week after predicted snowfall stays away over the New Year period. Continuing high pressure means 2026 dawns fine, dry and bright, however more unsettled conditions and snow move in over this weekend.
Starting on Friday, steady snowfall will blanket almost all areas in Austria, with 15cm down at St Anton each on Saturday and Sunday. A freezing line staying around 1,000m means this will hit most elevations. Further south and east, this will bear the brunt of snowfall for the region and up to 2ft could be expected down on Sunday and into the new week.
Things remain cold and snow as the new week begins, with plenty more snowfall on the way.
