Ski areas that are guaranteed snow and fun? Then you must have this in SalzburgerLand!

Sneeuwhoogte.nl and other winter sports apps that keep track of the number of meters of snow are now working overtime. As soon as the winter sports season starts, we hope that white mountain peaks will be visible that one week of the year (maybe more often with luck). A ski area with guaranteed snow provides reassurance, preferably in a ski area with guaranteed snow SalzburgerLand, because there they breathe winter sports. That is why this article lists the ski areas snow guaranteed and be fun!

 

And, and, and: read on to find out how you can win a winter sports trip to SalzburgerLand.

 

SalzburgerLand

SalzburgerLand

SalzburgerLand is known for: good snow and nice slopes. But it certainly is one go to for fun and that is (almost) just as important. Skiing has been going on in SalzburgerLand since 1894 and each generation adds new elements to each new season. Innovation and quality come first, of course with nature in mind.

And anyone who thinks that SalzburgerLand is one village or small destination is wrong. There are about 70 villages in SalzburgerLand, all of which have their own range of winter activities. In addition to 2.000 kilometers of slopes, you will also find options for cross-country skiing and tobogganing. And we wouldn't be Barts Boekje if we didn't say anything about the catering industry, but pinky promise that things are also going well here in the culinary field.

Obertauern

Obertauern

The snowiest winter sports resort in Austria? Then you have to, with an average of 264 centimeters of snow per year Obertauern knock. The slopes here are between 1.740 and 2.313 meters and snow usually falls here at the end of autumn.

The good weather conditions in Obertauern are due to the region's location; the snow comes here from both the north and the south. And for the fair-weather skier (we are somewhat guilty of this ourselves): the season often continues until June (so eight months of straight snow).

Another nice thing about Obertauern is that you can park your car here, because most accommodations are located directly on the slopes. And no matter which way you look at it, it doesn't matter which way you ski: you will always end up back in the center of Obertauern. Or you 'do' the Tauernrunde: all the slopes in one day - then you make more than 100 kilometers of piste.
