5 reasons for an Obertauern holiday in April!
We have enough snow for everyone!
Obertauern is Austria's snowiest winter sports resort - and this has even been proven! According to a study published in 2016 by Tyrolean ski tourism researcher Günther Aigner, Obertauern leads the ranking of the seven snowiest winter sports resorts in Austria with an average maximum snow depth of 264 centimetres. The abundant natural snow is due to a special weather constellation in the Tauern mountains, where snow clouds from the north and south meet and spread the white flakes over Obertauern.
In recent years, we have always enjoyed the best snow conditions, especially in April.
Current viewsVaried descents!
Thanks to the temperatures, the pistes are still in top condition in spring. As it is often still cold at night, the pistes warm up well and in the morning you can enjoy crisp and harder pistes that offer plenty of space for perfect turns. For those who haven't skied enough yet: in the afternoon, the sun transforms the compact pistes into fantastic firn runs.
MoreEnjoyment at the top!
Numerous ski huts invite you to sit on the terrace on sunny days. You will be spoilt with traditional dishes, regional products and homemade Schnaps. For the party animals among us, some ski huts offer the best après-ski parties to dance along to.
For those who prefer something more refined, restaurants and hotels in Obertauern show how to be creative and innovative with their culinary roots without forgetting the local cuisine. Even at this level, the cuisine in Obertauern remains exciting and authentic.
MoreFamily first!
A family holiday in Obertauern has a lot to offer. Numerous ski schools help little guests with their first turns on the snow. Offers for the older kids such as Bobby Land, the children's dew rounds or "Monster alarm on Bobby's mountain of animals" ensure fun and games on the piste.
The children's theatre takes place on 3 and 10 April. Children will also have the opportunity to meet the Obertauern mascot Bobby in person.
