Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Austria Oberlungau trip
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

My son is looking to go with the school next year to Oberlungau in Austria they are looking to go at Easter time which will be the end of March beginning of April. Has anyone been this time of year and what are the snow conditions at that time of year. we have never tried skiing in Europe only USA and Canada so unsure as to what the conditions would be like.

Thanks in advance

Oberlungau is a ski region which resort is he going too? Conditions vary every year so it's hard to tell but even with a less than spectacular season all the lifts are still open in Katschberg at the moment.

 Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

The only resort in the region that I have experiance of is Obertauern.
I've skiied there about 5-6 times over the years, early season, mid season, late season. A good snow sure location.
Genrally quiet snow reliable even late in the season. I've been last week March a couple of times with my kids, they thoroughly enjoyed it and wanted to go back this year.
A a rule all runs are open in late march 1st wk April. Temperatures can sometimes be a little warm (it will be spring afterall) resulting in slightly heavy snow, but really makes not a lot of difference.
Obertauern pistes are mainly blue / Red, nothing particularly challenging, easy to navigate, small vertical of about 600m top to bottom.
As always Altitude is a good indicator of conditions that you should expect, higher the better, ideally with mix of slope directions, you don't want everything facing south.

smmjh11, Lungau is a real "schneeloch" and the locals here sometimes call it the Siberian Austria!!we have raced in Katschberg, and Obertauern in April, and both times the pistes were brilliant. I skied the last day of the season in Obertauern last year, I think it was last April week and the pistes were still great til midday, after that it gets heavy. If he´s off end March it should be fine.
