some cheap deals to the ski welt at the moment. i am hoping to head there on 9th jan but a little concerned re lack of pistes being open at the moment. Particularly looking at the ellmau end. fairly new to this so would you suggest waiting to see what happens, or should the snow be pretty good by then ?

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person
Ellmau is quite low (top point 1580m ish?), so it's not surprising there aren't many runs open yet (I'm surprised there are *any*). Unless it's a particularly bad year 9th Jan should be a different story, and most pistes should be fine.

So it's maybe an unhelpful answer (but that's not going to stop me giving it wink ), but it depends on why you're waiting. If you want to be guaranteed excellent snow (or powder), then wait. If you're after a bargain and the deals you've seen (where, out of interest?) sound good, then go for it.

elvis6093, there are several of us who actually live in this area, so you can rely on ACCURATE reports on the snow as well information about the general region.

It is still very early in the season - remember Christmas is still 2 weeks away. I left my house (at a mere 800m) on the 4th Dec with no snow and warmish temperatures. I returned this lunch time to temperatures below 0°C and a good 30cms of snow. I know this for a fact as I had to help my friend dig out her car, which she left outside my garage! A lot can happen in the mountains in a few hours, let alone a few days. I have just returned from 10 days skiing in Sölden (village height 1382m) where it has snowed non-stop for the last 3 days. A short way further west, St Anton is not yet able to open fully. Swings and roundabouts in the mountains!

The Wilder Kaiser/Ski Welt area is a good snow sure area and is going to open properly, as will most resorts in Austria, on 19th December. This coming week we are forecast temperatures as low as -24°C at night and the day time temperatures are also due to be correspondingly low. Any snow that falls will be falling on to a frozen base and mixed with blown snow (to call it artificial snow is an insult with the state of the technology these days). As most of the slopes are covered in grass this means you can safely open the pistes with a cover of as little as 5cm of packed base. The tourist trade is Austria's biggest single employer and income earner - they will do everything in each community to ensure that their guests have a fabulous time and go away after their holiday raring to return. The money each community earns stays in that community and is invested to ensure the experience is as good as it can be.

A great deal of tosh is talked about "height" and snow cover - yes there have been bad years; the most recent one for us in our SE corner of the Alps was 2006/2007. The year before that we had snow at my "paltry" 800m from the third week in November until the first week in May. An advantage for the Austrian, Südtyrol and Swiss resorts in general is that most of the pistes are used for summer grazing. This means that they hold the snow better (grass) and can open with less depth than is usually needed to open in the French areas for example. The snowline is generally higher in France, hence all the high level resorts, but they need more snow to open as they are often above the summer grazing areas. A visit to some of the PDS resorts in summer would show you this - Les Gets is classic Alpine farm land, Avoriaz is (despite lots of investment in landscaping), a waste land akin to the slate mines of North Wales!

Samerberg Sue, Thanks. I'm out next week. The -24 was even -29 on Snow Forecast but they seem to have knocked that back into the mid teens now and showing + temps at village height on around 20th.

It does continue to amaze me how the "low" myth keeps getting trolled out (I blame the media). Some people need to go back and do elemtary geography or maybe just look at a map.

Bode Swiller, big party at Ellmau on Saturday afternoon (19th) - probably lots of other stuff going on too in Söll, Scheffau, Brixen, etc! They don't need much of an excuse for a party out here! All the resorts try hard to get something happening outside of the school holidays so that the adult punters (who spend more money) really do have a great time. Great skiing in Sölden this past 10 days with virtually no kids evident - that includes the "radical teens" - it's illegal to take kids out of school in Austria and Germany unless that child is sick or an immediate family member has died - can't even them get out for family weddings! Kids who were missing from my school in the week before a holiday had to produce an authentic doctor's note stating what was wrong and how long they were "signed off" for. Failure to compply could result in the parents being fined and possibly losing some of their "Kindergeld" (family allowence?).

Where are you going to be based? I'm hoping to be able to ski on Friday or maybe at the weekend.

I'm not sure if that was a response to my comment or not. Confused
You have to admit, though, that Ellmau is relatively low even for an Austrian ski resort (1555m, vs. say Saalbach at 2000m+). Don't misunderstand me, I'm a very big fan of early season skiing in Austria (seemingly much more reliable than even the highest French resorts), and like I said, by the 9th Jan I'd have thought snow would be fine in all but the worst of seasons...

Very well said....except for the rather rude comment about North wales. The slate quarrying areas are one of the most interesting landscapes in the Britsih Isles IMHO snowHead

The other point about Austria is that it is much further away from the Atlantic and consequently the freezing level is usually a lot lower. 1300 m in Austria is probably worth at least 1600m in France. The grassy slopes also mean very little snow is required and greatly helps piste management. This is Partly why the Sella Ronda is so good, dramatic scenery yet skiing mainly on grassy runs. Austria is also a good deal less windy than the western alps which means that the runs tend to get less scoured. Other than perhaps Val d'isere which has unusually smooth upper runs for the French Alps, early season skiing is much more reliable in Austria. The disadvantage of alpine pastures is that they can be more prone to avalanche and once the thaw comes they may not hold their snow as well as rocky slopes.

Samerberg Sue, thanks for that...it has put my mind at rest some what. We are going to Soll on 27th Feb, having been to Obertauern for past 4 years, which has such reliable snow, we are a little nervous about Soll, but we love tree lined skiing and Soll suited our budget far more. So I guess you can't have everything. As long as there is enough to link the lifts and it stays on the tops, not being able to ski right down to the village won't be too bad!

Ellmau is linked by a brilliant system of comfortable chairlifts to the Söll system amongst others where the lifts top out at 1957m (Höhe Salve) - which, if you add the 300m rule of thumb difference for the difference between western and eastern Alps, gives you a nice height to play with!

And remember - size isn't everything - it's what you can do with it that counts! Shocked wink rolling eyes rolling eyes

Currently only the lifts in Scheffau are open, which is slightly "lower" than the top station in Söll. This is probably due to the fact that not many people are skiing yet as opposed to not enough snow. I live two valleys to the north of the Wilder Kaiser and it's snowing here fit to bust. I've got to go out and do the "winter gymnastics" soon and dig out the car, otherwise tomorrow morning I'll have to get up an hour earlier to dig out 48 hours worth!

Absolutely, but I was talking about Ellmau not Soll or the SkiWelt in general. When I was in Ellmau one Christmas week, it wasn't possible to get to Soll (you could get to Scheffau, but no further). But that was a poor season, and in any case the following week there was loads of snow and all the links were open (so elvis6093 should be fine Smile ).

Hi Samerberg Sue

We arrive in Scheffau on 17th early morning, our first visit to the ski welt and really looking forward to it. a bit of a query if you do not mind. We will be picking up our hire car in Munich and I have ordered chains but they are trying to hit me for 10 euro per day to hire them and we are there for 10 days. We normally come to Austria in Feb so usually really need th echains. Would I be safe not getting them for this trip? I got a bit worried when you mentioned you were digging your car out!

thanks in advance

 You know it makes sense.
You know it makes sense.
carolwags, oooooooooooooooo the billion dollar question! wink wink wink

In theory the answer is both YES and NO - sorry! Embarassed

The law in Austria states that your car has to have winter equipment between November and April. This is winter tyres AND chains. I have had my chains in my car for 5 years and have never yet opened the box - it still has the cable binder on it, so it has never ever been opened rolling eyes

I have been checked by the police and asked to prove that I have chains - on roads which that the police decide, because of conditions, chains are essential, you are not allowed to go any further if you do not have them in the car! It's called "Kettenpflicht" - last week there were quite a lot of announcements on the radio about which roads were this category.

If there is a winter storm then it can be that you can only drive with chains on - in 30 years this has only happened to me once - I had to drive with chains on from St Johann im Pongau to Munich in single file the whole way, with the chains fitted at a stately and scary 30mph! (January 1996 I think).

The reality is that you should be able to take the gamble of not using them, splash out on the vignette (€7.90 for 10 days) and use the fast easy road from Wörgl to Söll and then on to Scheffau. This road is used by the coaches and heavier lorries to supply the Ski Welt area and is kept very clear. It does not have any of the steep turns of the road from Kufstein, and should it be snowy it is a bit safer to use.

You could buy a set of chains for less than €100 - so the car company is ripping you off. All the cars have winter tyres, so you should be OK

Cancel the chains is my advice to be honest!

We head out to Ellmau on 26th Dec. All looks good from the webcams.

According to the Skiwelt website Ellmau/Going part opened today, with the furnicular and chair lifts open - I assume full opening is Saturday. On Monday it was showing as only a handful of lifts open and 13km of piste (for the whole Skiwelt), today is showing as 56km - I'm guessing this will be a lot higher come the weekend.

Hi Sue

thanks for the prompt reply Very Happy

Looking at the weather forecast I may play it safe and take the chains. We had them last year and had a huge dump of snow overnight. OH went to fit the chains the next morning and found they had given us the wrong size - luckily we had a great chalet manager who drove him into town (Niederau) to buy a set! I have just realised too that we will be meeting up with friends in Mayrhofen for a days skiing so probably had better get them just in case - but 100 euros Shocked So much for the cheap car hire. I had booked this family holiday for us at the last moment to get OH away from work and the kids have never seen a white xmas. Turning out to cost more than our regular trip in Feb.

thanks again

Mine cost me about 30 Euros at Obi. They are always signposted (big orange signs) or you could call into the huge Hornbacher DIY outlet which has its own exit from the A9 just as you go into Munich (do not drive off on to the A99 - head for the city centre instead). You can easily pick up the A 8 by following the signs on the Mitteler Ring Ost (Richtung Salzburg).

supernatural, Ellmau has the Hartkaiserbahn and it is a funicular railway. In Scheffau it is the Brandstadlbahn. Both were open earlier this week. Scheffau is the nearest for you if you are based in Hofgarten.

The chances are that the Brandstadl and Hartkaiser are open, I'm not so sure about the Salvenbahn directly out of Hofgarten. That may be open but is for sure at the weekend if the snow is OK. The pre-season time ends on Friday and all hell will be let loose on the autobahns at the weekend as half of Scandinavia and the Netherlands decamps down to the Alps!

Go to the information office and ask about ski schools - they are all good and all the instructors have to speak good English as most of the non-German speakers have English as a second language.

If you're looking for an Obi, there is one just off the A8 autobahn by Rosenheim (though that means going a little past the Inntal exit that you would be taking for Söll, etc.; Rosenheim is the next exit after the Inntal junction). Take the Rosenheim exit and turn right towards Rosenheim. You will see the Obi on the left as you drive along but you have to go past it on the dual carriageway and then turn back at the next lights (I usually drive about 100 yds up the side road on the left, turn round at the entry to a furniture store and come back again).

supernatural, I would expect the Salvenbahn to be running out of Hopfgarten, for even if one can't ski down to the village there, the lift (second section) now runs to the top of the Höhe Salve, so it would be the obvious way for Hopfgarten skiers to get into the SkiWelt.

Snow conditions in Scheffau and on the rest of the Skiwelt are pretty good at the moment. Not been any snow here while we've been in resort, but the temperatures have been generally well below freezing so most areas have retained good coverage. We headed over to Westendorf today and the pistes were brilliant, noticed on the way back that some areas in the scheffau bowl are showing the mud a little bit though Shocked . Also, it warmed up alot today so there's been a bit of a meltdown in the valley.

That said, most pistes are open and in good condition - Should be no problems for you on the 26th, more snow expected this week and freezing levels set to fall again, no need to worry!
