Forecast today: Snow grains
but they have a surprising amount of variety and are renowned for their family-friendly nature. There are some very good learning zones at the foot of the mountain and good progression on to the longer blues of Harschbichl. For more advanced skiers, the long black down the Bauernalm lift is popular and there are some good tree runs after fresh snow.
Recent investment has improved the lift system and investment in snowmaking has improved snow reliability for what is admittedly a low-altitude resort.
St Johann is a friendly, quiet place that is in contrast to the lively, buzzing resort of Kitzbühel nearby. There is a number of excellent, family-focussed hotels and the Panorama Badewelt is a popular swimming pool in the town centre.
Getting here is exceptionally easy, with a quick hour long drive from Innsbruck or a two hour train ride directly to the resort centre.

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.
