Berwang

Off season Official site

Berwang is a ski area in Austria, on slopes between roughly 1,720 and 1,720 m. Its mapped area is about 8.0 km across, with 61 marked runs and 15 lifts (about 28 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 245 cm of snowfall a season, 765th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 93rd in Austria. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2018/19 (380 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2016/17 (151 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 77 cm.

Below is a link to its official live camera.

Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.

Elevation range is estimated by sampling points across the ski area.

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.
