Rangger Köpfl

Off season Official site

Rangger Köpfl is a ski area in Austria, on slopes between roughly 1,438 and 1,438 m. Its mapped area is about 5.2 km across, with 7 marked runs and 5 lifts (about 6.2 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 226 cm of snowfall a season, 907th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 122nd in Austria. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2018/19 (350 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2016/17 (135 cm). March still brings 55 cm on average, close to January, its snowiest month.

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.
