Snowmaking adds to the snow reliability, making this a great early or late season choice
An impressive lift system, featuring slick gondolas, world-first chondola lifts and several fast chairs with heated seats serves an impressive 100km of varied slopes, all of which are located between a snowsure altitude of 1600-2300m.
Much of the terrain is suited to beginners and intermediates, and unless there’s fresh snow there is little to attract experts – only 4% of the resort’s runs are marked black.
Most of the accommodation is located right at the foot of the lifts, offering up ski-in-ski-out options that make this a great family-friendly option.
There’s a lively après scene at the end of the ski day and the resort is known for having a great selection of mountain restaurants. Off the slopes there’s some good cross country trails and a number of prepared winter walking trails.
Access from Salzburg is quick and easy, with the drive taking around 75 minutes.

Snow Overview
Austria
Updated 18/02
High pressure over Eastern and Central Europe creates a strong barrier that is preventing low pressure and unsettled weather making its way in off the Atlantic. The result will be a cool but otherwise really stable week and weekend ahead for the Austrian Alps.
Sun will be the order of the day for most of this week, with a few flutters of cloud cover moving in through the middle of this week. The freezing line will drop overnight, with lows of -9°C possible at 2,000m. From its nadir at 1,000m, the line will climb in the midday sun, reaching 2,000m every day, bringing spring-like conditions to make areas. Over the course of the week, both overnight and midday lines will rise by c.500m, meaning proper spring-like conditions will dominate with fewer opportunities for snow to freeze overnight.
Early indicators are for some more snowfall to begin the new week, but it remains too early to tell whether this will bring meaningful snow to the region.
