Hi, can anyone give me any idea about how good (or bad) the snow might be in this resort for ski trip booked for departure 21/3. it will be only our second ski trip, we went to Romania last year and it was really good, booked originally for 28th feb this year, thought i would try to improve my pathetic attempts fell and broke my wrist. now unsure if i have left it late for good snow. :( thanks.

Hi angeltop
I've just had a snow report from this site and it seems they're expecting fresh snow in Niederau next week. Have a look by clicking the snow report tab at the top of the page. Regulars to this forum (see Niederau threads) have assured me that the snow usually lasts well into March.
We're going on the 28th - can't wait!
Have fun.

Hi Allie, thanks for reply hope you have a good time, let me know how you go on. although i am really looking forward to our dept on the 21/3 still worried re snow. i have no idea what people do if the snow is not good. one of my fears is that the (nursery) slopes might be icy. anyway hey-ho we will see. take care, mal.

Angeltop, I have skied the past three seasons at the season end, (end of March) each year, we have left Niederau, Gondola closed, with a completely white mountain.

You do have to understand that with March skiing, the best skiing is early morning to mid-afternoon. If you have some experience, there are two runs at the top of the mountain that usually retain good quality snow until the season end.

This year the Niederau season ends on the 29th March, after which Niederau-based folk will catch the ski bus to Auffach, where the lift system remains open for another couple of weeks.

Sad to say, I wil miss you by three days, I head home on the 18 March. Unless of course there is a big snow dump, and subsequent pleading phone calls to my OH!
