Forecast today: Clear skies
Much of the terrain is pretty and tree-lined, and the vast majority is rated red, making this a paradise for intermediates that love to clock up big miles each day. The lift system is very impressive and you’ll spend most of your day riding fast gondolas or high-capacity chairlifts, plus the key connection in the linked ski area – the 130-person G-Link cable car. It is also part of the wider Ski Amadé ski area, providing hundreds of kilometres of further pistes.
Wagrain itself is quite a large resort base, with the centre located around 500m away from the base of the access lifts. There is however, accommodation right between it and the base of the two main access lifts – the fantastically named Flying Mozart gondola and the two lifts heading up to Grafenberg. There’s a good selection of bars and restaurants, plus the impressive Wasserwelt Amade swimming complex in the heart of town. Wagrain is only an hour’s drive from Salzburg Airport, making it one of the best resorts in Austria for a weekend trip.

Some fairly unique weather hits the Alps this week, but Austria’s geography means it will miss out on most of this. High pressure bringing fine, dry and bright conditions to many areas over the middle of this week, before a dramatic flow of cold air driven from a huge, dense area of high pressure over European Russia arrives.
This will bring cloud and cooler conditions to the region, plus a few flurries of snow – however, this will only really impact resorts lying south of the Main Alpine Ridge in the east and southeast of the country, bringing up to about 5cm of snow across Friday and Saturday.
High pressure returns to the area on Sunday, bringing more fine, dry and bright conditions to the region.
