Forecast today: Rain and snow
Note too that your lift pass gives you access to the Hochoetz ski area a little further to the west.
The resort is a mere 35km from Innsbruck, so does attract weekend crowds if the snow is not so good lower down elsewhere, but there are few resorts as convenient or with shorter transfer times. In resort there’s a collection of comfortable hotels many of which are ski-in, ski-out. Off the slopes there’s cross country skiing on offer, with several marked and groomed loops – the most scenic being around the frozen lake just to the west of the resort centre.

After a pretty desperate season, bumper conditions finally – finally – arrive for Austria, as it experiences its first Nortstau event of the season through the middle of this week.
Unsettled conditions drifting in from the north will bring with it cold temperatures as the freezing line takes a long walk off a short pier; from a daytime high of 2,400m on Wednesday it will plummet to sea level by Friday morning.
These unsettled conditions will of course mean snow, with good snowfall hitting the Austrian Alps on Wednesday afternoon and continuing steadily until Friday morning; this will see around 45cm fall, particularly focused across higher ground as the freezing line works its way down the elevation chart steadily over this period. Around 25cm will fall on Thursday alone.
Expect the avalanche risk to increase over this period as this new snowfall sits on either wet ground, wet snow, or a spring freeze-thaw crust; plan your backcountry routes carefully, and check your local avalanche forecast before heading out.
Sun returns with gusto on Saturday, before the last few flurries of cloud and snow move in over Sunday and the new week.
