The glacier ski area may be smaller than others, but snow reliability is just as good as elsewhere.

The slopes extend up to 3113m and its possible to drop 1000m down to the base at Ochsenalm in one run. Most are rated blue, but there’s a couple of reds off the Karlsjochbahn lift and a long black down to base, accessed via a ski tunnel. The ski area is also renowned for its backcountry options, hire a guide and explore beyond the lift network, with particular highlights being the Weisseejoch and Nörderberg routes, each of which drop almost a vertical kilometer.

There’s no accommodation at the slopes, so stay instead at Feichten or at the small ski resort of Fendels, located a little further down the valley. Getting here takes a little over an hour from Innsbruck.

Snow Overview

Austria

Updated 02/05

The weekend starts mild across the region, with the freezing line ticking up to 4,000m. This sits under a layer of cloud cover, which will bring with it precipitation; this will fall as snow in many areas, as the freezing line drops from this peak as low as 1,500m over the course of the weekend.

Western areas will see around 12cm of snow, with easterly and southern areas seeing perhaps a foot on Monday along, with another 10cm before and after. This will remain across higher ground, as the freezing line doesn’t dip below 2,000m during this snowy period.

Unsettled conditions continue over the course of this week, with more snow on the way in parts.

Thus concludes our snow overviews for the 2024/25 season; thank you to everyone who has tuned in, and we look forward to seeing you again next season!
