Forecast today: Occasional snow
- Max temp: -1.6 °c
- Min temp: -6.9 °c
- Last snowed: Fri 20 Dec
Although it is small, the Mölltal Glacier offers up some of Austria's best glacier skiing,
with reliable snow conditions thanks to exceptional altitude and an arsenal of snow machines located on the glacier itself – it’s no wonder therefore that the Austrian National Team use Mölltal for their summer and autumn training.
There is 18km of slopes, not all of which open in the summer, with a decent amount of variety, plus there’s also some decent off piste when conditions allow.
There is no accommodation at the foot of the long funicular that accesses the ski area, so you’ll need to stay down in the valley in the village of Flattach.
Nearby, there’s also skiing at Ankogel and Heiligenblut isn’t far away either.
Klagenfurt is the closest airport (1.5 hours drive) with Salzburg (2 hours drive) is another option.

Snow Overview
Austria
Updated 20/12
The timeline for Christmas week snow is accelerated massively as a huge, dense area of low pressure gets swept in on the Jetstream to cover much of central and northern Europe as the weekend continues. Temperatures will remain cold through this weekend, with a freezing line dropping to 500m on Sunday and, as a result temperatures of -10°C being the norm at 2,000m.
In the west of the region, things will turn slightly bonkers. Sunday snowfall falls as half-a-metre in most places and, instead of drying up as the new week begins, it will continue to fall across Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday (Christmas day), too. A further 45cm can be expected down on Monday and another 30cm on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
Resorts further east and south may struggle to see this same snowfall, especially on Sunday and into Monday, as it struggles to make the leap over the Main Alpine Ridge. Christmas Eve snowfall, however, will remain excellent across the board, with 40cm expected in these areas.
Expect the avalanche risk to tick up to High or Very High (4 or 5) over the coming days as a result. Unfortunately avalanche.report doesn’t forecast in advance like the French do, so it is difficult to ascertain with any certainty what it might do – however current risk are being reported as persistent weak layers, which can cause ongoing difficulties with avalanche risk associated with new snow. Please check your local forecasts carefully using the links below and plan any backcountry and off piste travel carefully in the coming days.
