Forecast today: Light rain shwr
With some of the most scenic terrain in Austria, as well as some of the most extreme, this is a great area for freeriding and touring. Accommodation is mostly found in the three valley towns of Gaschurn, St Gallenkirch and Schruns, all of which are well linked to the ski area by modern gondolas.
The main attraction for more experienced snowsports enthusiasts is the lift served off piste, 27km of which is in the form of marked, but unpisted ski routes. Head to the top of the Burg draglift for R55 or to the Rinderhรผtte chair for R44. This is also one of the best resorts in Austria for ski touring and the lift system provides excellent access to numerous freeride routes.
There are three main towns to base yourself in โ Shruns, St Gallenkirch and Gaschurn. Perhaps the most convenient base is St Gallenkirch as it sits in between the two main Hochjoch and Valisera ski areas, but Shruns and Gaschurn have a better choice of bars, restaurants and accommodation.
*Weekend operation will begin in mid-November should snow conditions permit. Resort opens full-time in stages between 30 November and 25 December.

Brief flurries of snowfall open the weekend for many areas in Austria, the best conditions found in the south and east of the region where up to 20cm can be found on higher slopes over the course of Friday and into Saturday. Further north and west, and this is reduced to a few centimetres.
All this is helped by a friendly freezing line, starting the weekend anchored nicely around 2,000m, dropping off overnight perhaps as low as 1,500m. This will rise gently over the course of the new week as sun moves in to dominate, reaching 3,000m in the midday sun by the middle of the new week.
