Forecast today: Mainly fair
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.

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.
