CloseBad Kleinkircheim
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: Clear skies
- Max temp: 6.1 °c
- Min temp: -3.8 °c
- Last snowed: Fri 14 Feb
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 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.
