Maria Alm is located at the far western end of the Hochkönig and since 2018/19 it has been linked via Natrun to the rest of the ski area.
As a result, it is now possible to make the most of the opportunity to ski sweeping blues and reds all the way to the town of Mühlbach – a distance of around 15km as the crow flies. There are few resorts that offer this sense of travel, plus the lift system is fantastic so you’ll spend your time being whisked up on slick gondolas or fast chairs.
Maria Alm, though small, is one of the two largest villages in the area and is a pretty place with a splendid old church boasting the highest spire in Salzburgerland. There’s some brilliant cross country trails in the vicinity and lots of walking, ensuring the resort is a great place for non-skiers too. The transfer is quick from Salzburg, taking around 1 hour.

Snow Overview
Austria
Updated 24/03
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.
