Snowmaking adds to the snow reliability, making this a great early or late season choice

An impressive lift system, featuring slick gondolas, world-first chondola lifts and several fast chairs with heated seats serves an impressive 100km of varied slopes, all of which are located between a snowsure altitude of 1600-2300m.

Much of the terrain is suited to beginners and intermediates, and unless there’s fresh snow there is little to attract experts – only 4% of the resort’s runs are marked black.

Most of the accommodation is located right at the foot of the lifts, offering up ski-in-ski-out options that make this a great family-friendly option.

There’s a lively après scene at the end of the ski day and the resort is known for having a great selection of mountain restaurants. Off the slopes there’s some good cross country trails and a number of prepared winter walking trails.

Access from Salzburg is quick and easy, with the drive taking around 75 minutes.

Snow Overview

Austria

Updated 17/02

Steady snowfall continues for much of Austria, helping relieve what has so-far been an historically bad season. Main ski areas to the west will receive around 20cm of snowfall across most elevations, helped as the freezing line plummets to sea level overnight into Wednesday. Flurries will continue throughout Wednesday with plenty of cloud around, and temperatures rising as the freezing line recovers to 2,000m.

Another belt of snow will come in over Thursday bringing around a foot of snow to areas across the country – north and south of the main alpine ridge. The freezing line will hover around 1,500m meaning upper elevations will get the best of this snow, but cool mornings and evenings will result in snow reaching most elevations.

Things remain cold as the week wraps up, with the threat of sunshine becoming stronger in easterly areas. Snow however continues well into the weekend, with sunday promising excellent skiing conditions across the region.
