Forecast today: Broken clouds
most of the terrain is suited to intermediates, especially in the Rosskopf sector where the piste map is dominated by winding blues. Efficient, fast lifts make getting around very quick and easy, including across the valley via Flachauwinkl to a further area of linked slopes. More advanced skiers and riders will enjoy the World Cup piste and other routes off the Gamskogel, as well as the steeper terrain off Tauernkar. The purpose-built village is very convenient, with all accommodation being ski-in-ski-out and right at the foot of the main lifts. It is not hugely lively however, with a most evening activity limited to the hotels and there’s not a huge amount to do away from the slopes. Getting here is incredibly easy – the drive from Salzburg can take less than an hour if there’s no traffic.

The weekend starts mild across the region, with the freezing line ticking up to 4,000m. This sits under a layer of cloud cover, which will bring with it precipitation; this will fall as snow in many areas, as the freezing line drops from this peak as low as 1,500m over the course of the weekend.
Western areas will see around 12cm of snow, with easterly and southern areas seeing perhaps a foot on Monday along, with another 10cm before and after. This will remain across higher ground, as the freezing line doesn’t dip below 2,000m during this snowy period.
Unsettled conditions continue over the course of this week, with more snow on the way in parts.
Thus concludes our snow overviews for the 2024/25 season; thank you to everyone who has tuned in, and we look forward to seeing you again next season!
