As part of the vast SkiWelt ski area, Hopfgarten is an excellent resort for intermediates and families keen to explore extensive linked pistes.
The lift system has seen significant investment in recent years and is now one of the best around, whilst significant upgrades to the snowmaking system have helped with the unreliable snow issues that plagued the resort previously. Almost 90% of the slopes are rated blue or red, making this one vast intermediate playground, but after fresh snow there’s some decent off piste on offer and beginners will enjoy the dedicated learning zones – just note that the slopes back down to Hopfgarten are rated red and downloading the gondola is recommended.
The town itself is fairly spread out along the valley – base yourself as near to the Salvenbahn as possible to have the quickest access up the mountain each morning. There’s a decent range of accommodation, including some good value family-friendly options. Getting here is easy, with the train or road transfer from Innsbruck taking only an hour.

Snow Overview
Austria
Updated 14/01
High pressure dominates over most of Europe this week, thanks to the Jetstream forming a strong barrier along the west cost of Ireland, the UK and Norway. As a result, plenty of sun and fine, dry and bright conditions will be story of the week from now until the end of the weekend.
Things will remain cold, however, with a freezing line camping out at around 1,000m, occasionally peaking to 2,000m in the midday sun. Daytime highs of -5°C can be expected at 2,000m, occasionally slipping into positive temperatures throughout the week.
A few flurries of snow will move in to some areas on Wednesday as a pocket of low pressure moves into Eastern Europe, but this will barely measure on the snowstick.
This barrier is broken as the weekend comes to a conclusion, with more unsettled weather moving in over the course of the new week – it is still to far out to see what affect this may have.
