Snow in Austria
Austria packs more ski resorts into a smaller space than anywhere else in the Alps. Tyrol in the west has St. Anton and Lech-Zürs on the Arlberg, Ischgl in the Paznaun, Sölden and Obergurgl in the Ötztal, and Kitzbühel and Mayrhofen further east. Salzburg province adds Saalbach-Hinterglemm, Zell am See-Kaprun, Bad Gastein and Obertauern, and Vorarlberg shares the Arlberg with Tyrol.
Austrian resorts are generally lower than the big French and Swiss ones, and many villages sit below 1,000 m, which makes the height of the lifts matter more. Sölden and Obergurgl reach above 3,000 m and Kaprun has a glacier; Mayrhofen and Zell am See start well below 800 m. In our record the Austrian resorts average about 13 snowy days at mid-mountain in December, January and March.
When it snows
Glacier resorts open in October; most others open between mid-November and early December and close in April. The Arlberg and the northern Alps as a whole catch snow from north-westerly storms, and the inner Alpine valleys such as the Ötztal are drier but colder and higher.
Getting there
Innsbruck airport is inside the Tyrolean Alps and within an hour or two of most Tyrol resorts. Salzburg serves the eastern resorts, Munich is a common gateway for both, and Zurich works for the Arlberg. Trains run to St. Anton, Kitzbühel, Zell am See and Bad Gastein.
