Forecast today: Light snow
A fast quad takes skiers and boarders to Galzig, right at the heart of the St Anton ski area and with blues back into resort at the end of the day, this is one of the more gentle parts of the ski area famed for its extensive off piste and steep terrain. It is also very quick to get across to Lech and Zürs via the Ahlenmähder chair and the Flexenbahn gondola.
The resort itself is barely more than a hamlet home to a handful of hotels, including one of the Alps’ best hotels, the Arlberg Hospiz. Prices are high, but with that you get incredible facilities, a world-class restaurant and real old-school Austrian luxury. Getting here is simple, either drive from Innsbruck airport or catch the train to St Anton – the former takes around 75 minutes, with the latter a little longer.

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.
