This picturesque resort is tucked away in the southern Austrian Alps in a pretty, tree-lined valley and was where ski racing legend Franz Klammer learned his trade.

Forecast today: Light rain shwr
- Max temp: 7.9 °c
- Min temp: 0.3 °c
- Last snowed: Mon 17 Mar
The jewel in the resort's crown is the Franz Klammer downhill run, which drops down almost 1000m from the summit to the valley and hosts World Cup races each season.
Away from this, there are over 100km of other slopes to explore, ranging from gentle blues to cruisey reds (over 75% of the slopes are rated red), but there is little in the way of off piste or real challenges for experts.
As famous as it is for skiing and the legacy of Franz Klammer, the resort is equally as famous for its spas and many visitors come here just to enjoy the healing thermal waters and fresh mountain air. There is a very good choice of accommodation, including lots of traditional family-run hotels. Getting there is easy, with links via Klagenfurt or Salzburg airports in Austria or Ljubljana airport across the border in Slovenia.

Austria
Updated 28/03
A steady nordstau event over Austria hits this weekend, with cooling temperatures and loads of snow hitting the region. Loads of it. Snowfall brings over two feet of snow to the Inn and Ems Valleys, with plenty of it making it over the Main Alpine Ridge to the southerly edges of the Austria Alps. Snow will begin Friday night, before around a foot falls on Saturday, followed by half a foot on Sunday and nearly another foot on Monday.
The freezing line will drop off gradually over the course of this period, starting at 2,000m but reaching 1,000m by dawn on Monday. This will ensure that much of this especially later snowfall reaches lower elevation slopes, too.
Fine, dry and steady conditions then move in for the remainder of the week and into next weekend.
