They are completely dependent upon natural snow. At this altitude, you can usually count on continuous ski operation between December and March.
Worth knowing
- No artificial snow-making
- The valley run is always open when ski resort is open; without the valley run, ski operation is not possible.
The slope preparation is very good.
Tip: By new snow, an optimal slope prepartion is not always possible, even with a large effort. In addition, the new snow can not combine with the snow lying underneath and moguls are created quickly. For safety reasons, usually no slope preparation is possible during operating times.
A free parking lot is available at the Fleckl lift. The nearest expressway is a little more than 20 km away.
