Snow Report
With the first snowflakes in late autumn, a new winter fairytale begins every year in Obertauern. Snow-covered peaks and a majestic natural landscape covered in a white mantle provide a unique backdrop from November to May. The abundant natural snow is thanks to a special weather constellation in the "Tauern", where snow clouds from the north and south converge and sprinkle the white flakes abundantly over Obertauern. According to a study published in 2016, Obertauern leads the ranking of the seven snowiest winter sports resorts in Austria with an average maximum snow depth of 264 centimetres.
The reported snow depths represent average values for the entire ski area. Local variations may occur, for example in exposed or sheltered locations, due to the geographic position of individual measuring stations.
