Hi all,

Shortly heading on our first trip of the season to Mayrhofen,and we want to book a second trip before we leave. Our only chance to get away will be mid march, most lightly the 12th to 19th.

Can anyone recommend where we would get guaranteed snow at that time, preferably another resort in Austria, but open to others. We went to Soll that time last year, started to get really slushy, obviously its too low for Mid March skiing. We will have two second time skiers, the rest of our group are advanced.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Given the choice, Obergurgl or Solden or if your flush St Anton, Zurs, lech or Stuben. They should all have good snow in mid March.
I just love the gravitational pull

Agree with Obergurgl or Lech, but perhaps also consider Serre Chevalier as a non-Austrian alternative.

Anyone know if Saalbach is good mid-march? I see its 1000m to 2000m, so I'm doubting it. Edging towards St Aanton at the mo, trying to find a central hotel for skilifts!

Yep Saalbach would be ok, plently of cannons even if the snowfall is missing,
