Forecast today: Snow grains
The village itself is a very convenient base, with lots of accommodation a very short walk from the Maiskogel gondola. There are some decent bars and restaurants too, plus there’s the option of visiting Zell am See which is very nearby and home to livelier après ski and a bigger choice of dining options. The drive from Salzburg is quick, taking less than an hour and half.

Austria sees some good and much-needed snowfall over the course of this weekend and into the new week. Temperatures remain cold throughout, as the freezing line hovers around 1,500m across the region, occassionally spiking to just above 2,000m. A few flurries of snowfall over the weekend will be matched with a few threats of sunshine, before the taps turn on into the new week.
Eastern and Southeastern areas will see around a foot of snowfall over Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, focused on Saturday when most of this will fall. Western areas will see much needed consistent snowfall, with just over a foot expected down in consistent waves from Sunday until Tuesday, with more snowfall expected later in the week.
