Mönichkirchen - Mariensee

Off season Official site

Mönichkirchen - Mariensee is a ski area in Austria, at about 1,133 m. Its mapped area is about 4.3 km across, with 14 marked runs and 5 lifts (about 9.3 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 83 cm of snowfall a season, 2,549th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 234th in Austria. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (126 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2015/16 (53 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 26 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.

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.
