No snow yet. Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear once snow is on the ground or forecast.

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.

Hagenberg Sulzberg-Thal, in Austria, runs from 613 m at the base to 918 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 1.6 km across, with 7 marked runs and 2 lifts (about 4 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 169 cm of snowfall a season, 1,427th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 182nd in Austria. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (259 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2024/25 (84 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 66 cm.
How much snow it gets
Modelled from weather data the same way at all 3,069 ski areas we cover. 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.

When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
The most snow falls in January. March brings 42% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Austria (75%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. In amount, March brings 28 cm, less than the median of 49 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 169 cm, and 6 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2024/25 with 84 cm; the biggest was 2017/18 with 259 cm (3.1 times as much). For 39% of the 243 ski areas in Austria the leanest winter was 2016/17; here it was a different one.
Snowfall each winter (December–March total). The dashed line is the average; the numbers mark the leanest and the biggest winter.
