Off season

No snow yet. Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.

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.

Hausberglift - Waidring, in Austria, runs from 781 m at the base to 896 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 0.8 km across, with 2 marked runs and 1 lift (about 1.2 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 266 cm of snowfall a season, 637th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 65th in Austria. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2018/19 (551 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2025/26 (176 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 87 cm.

99% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east. Those slopes get the least sun, so the snow lasts longer.
