Brandnertal – Brand/​Bürserberg

10 / 100 Powder Score
Thin 🌤️ Official site

Brandnertal – Brand/​Bürserberg is a ski area in Austria. The terrain spans roughly 1251–1251 m above sea level. The mapped ski area is about 8.7 km across, corner to corner. The map shows 70 marked runs and 12 lifts inside the ski area, totalling about 45 km of piste. Averaged over the last twelve winters, the ERA5 reanalysis gives it 274 cm of snowfall a season, 598th (tied) of the 3,069 ski areas we measure worldwide. The model runs well below what resorts report, so the ranking is the meaningful part rather than the centimetre figure. 1 official live camera is linked below. 250 other ski areas lie within 120 km. Snow figures and the Powder Score are recalculated every day.

Elevation range is estimated by sampling points across the ski area.

We do not show a snow depth here. The weather model we use reports snow lying on the ground — it knows nothing about grooming or snowmaking, and it is not the base depth a ski area publishes. In Japan we can check our figures against 234 weather stations. Outside Japan there is nothing to check them against, so we do not print a number we have not verified.
