Biberwier - Marienberg

Off season Official site

Biberwier - Marienberg is a ski area in Austria, at about 1,477 m. Its mapped area is about 4.0 km across, with 25 marked runs and 6 lifts (about 9.6 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 204 cm of snowfall a season, 1,117th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 152nd in Austria. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2018/19 (299 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2016/17 (109 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 65 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 of the ski area’s centre point, taken from a digital elevation model. It is not the base-to-summit range.

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.
