Forecast today: Rather cloudy
Most of the slopes are rated red, making this a paradise for intermediate and advanced skiers looking to cruise kilometre after kilometre of well-groomed runs. The jewel in the crown is the epic descent down to Tröpolach, which drops over 1200m of vertical to the valley floor. Unless there has been fresh powder, experts may find the ski area a bit limited, but there are a few blacks marked on the piste map. Look out for a new big connection to Pontebba over the border into Italy in the next few years.
Accommodation-wise, there are two main options. Families or those looking for maximum convenience should base themselves at Sonnenalpe, which has a decent collection of family run hotels and apartment buildings. The alternative is to stay at Tröpolach at the foot of the Millenium Express gondola – which has its own good selection of accommodation and dining options. Away from the slopes, the region is home to 300km of cross country trails, 150km of winter walking trails and if the Pressegger See in the valley freezes, great ice sports are on offer.

The Ski Club uses third party independent assessments and accreditation of ski resorts to determine a resort “environmentally sustainable” – more information can be found here.
Nassfeld has received certification from the Global Sustainability Tourism Council (GSTC) as a sustainable tourist destination, requiring the a destination to meet criteria across four areas, including sustainable management, socio-economic sustainability, cultural sustainability, and environmental sustainability.
The GSTC is a UN-affiliated body dedicated to enabling sustainable tourism around the world. GSTC certification is controlled by Vireo, an Italian for-profit certification and licencing organisation that manages several similar schemes. Nassfeld was awarded its certificate in 2021, which expires in 2024.

Updated 11/02
Good, steady snowfall will come for much of Austria this week, although in a tale that has dogged the region for much of this season it will be limited to upper slopes because of an unfavourable freezing line during this period. It will sit between 1,500m and 2,000m for most of the rest of this week, with around 45cm of snowfall coming in this period – including 30cm on Wednesday alone.
This will being to drop as the week continues, with the 20cm of snowfall expected on Thursday and Friday beginning to hit lower slopes, too. It will dip below 1,000m across the region to welcome in the weekend, before dropping off a cliff on Sunday, when chances of sun will break through the last few flurries of snowfall.
Things remain cloudy and snowy into the new week, although it remains a bit too far out to see exactly what will happen.
