Klippitztörl

Off season Official site

Klippitztörl is a ski area in Austria, at about 1,698 m. Its mapped area is about 3.0 km across, with 28 marked runs and 6 lifts (about 13 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 115 cm of snowfall a season, 2,167th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 208th in Austria. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (206 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2016/17 (63 cm). December brings as much snow as January here (31 and 28 cm on average).

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.

When it falls, and how winters differ

Month by month

Month by month, the most snow falls in December. March brings 93% of January’s snowfall. That is a gentler fall than the median for ski areas in Austria (75%). For skiing, though, the amount matters more than the share: March brings 26 cm, less than the median of 49 cm.

Winter by winter

Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 115 cm, and 7 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2016/17 with 63 cm; the biggest was 2017/18 with 206 cm (3.3 times as much). For 39% of the 243 ski areas in Austria, the leanest winter was the same 2016/17: bad winters tend to hit a whole region at once.
