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 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.
