It is reliably snow-sure and there are endless challenging ski runs to tackle for the more adventurous skiers and snowboarders. Whilst holding the reputation of being more suited to confident skiers, the many wooded mountains provide gentle slopes perfect for beginners and timid intermediates, making Austria and get ski holiday for families too. 

Austria claims to have the most efficient ski lift systems in Europe as well as excellent snowmaking technology which means you can expect reliable snow-cover even at the low altitudes.

When to ski in Austria?

The Austrian ski season tends to run from early December through to late April, and thanks to state of the art technology, even the lower resorts can run all season long.  Choosing when to go all depends on what kind of luxury ski holiday you are looking for. The Austrian Christmas markets and festive celebrations, in particular New Year’s Eve, are a huge draw for visiting in December. For those wanting the best conditions, emptier slopes and best value for luxury ski chalets then January is the best month. February is a great time of the season for families and late February and March are good sun-seekers. By April there is the risk of slushy afternoons, but you will benefit from warmer weather and can enjoy long mountain lunches in the sunshine.
