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.

Score breakdown
The five add up to the 100-point Powder Score: more fresh snow, more on the way and colder air all push it up. How we measure
Diedamskopf, in Austria, runs from 838 m at the base to 2,056 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 5.0 km across, with 60 marked runs and 10 lifts (about 36 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 368 cm of snowfall a season, 233rd (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 1st in Austria. Its winters are fairly steady; even the leanest, 2025/26 (263 cm), reached 71% of the average. January is usually the snowiest month, with about 115 cm.
The nearest city of any size is Zurich, about 112 km away in a straight line. Below are links to its official live camera.
Runs and lifts
Counted from the runs and lifts drawn on OpenStreetMap, within the boundary of the ski area. These are not the resort’s own published figures.

How much snow it gets
Measured by us across 3,069 ski areas by one identical method. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
Compared with what is nearby
Within 50 km in a straight line. Ski areas in the same weather-model cell (about 30 km across) get the same figure.
| Ski area | Distance | Seasonal snowfall | World rank |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ifen | 8.0 km | 361 cm | 246 |
| Heuberg Arena/Walmendingerhorn | 9.1 km | 361 cm | 246 |
| Schetteregg | 10.0 km | 323 cm | 390 |
| Niedere Andelsbuch-Bezau | 11.0 km | 265 cm | 643 |
| Wildentallift | 11.0 km | 318 cm | 408 |
When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
Month by month, the most snow falls in January. March brings 77% of January’s snowfall. That is in line with the median for ski areas in Austria (75%). In amount, March brings 88 cm, more than the median of 49 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 368 cm, and 6 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2025/26 with 263 cm; the biggest was 2017/18 with 507 cm (1.9 times as much).
Snowfall each winter (December–March total). The dashed line is the average; the numbers mark the leanest and the biggest winter.
