Werfenweng is a ski area in Austria, on slopes between roughly 1,095 and 1,095 m. Its mapped area is about 5.8 km across, with 30 marked runs and 9 lifts (about 22 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 243 cm of snowfall a season, 780th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 100th in Austria. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2018/19 (461 cm), brought more than twice as much as the leanest, 2025/26 (167 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 78 cm.

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.

How much snow it gets
Measured by us across 3,069 ski areas by one identical method. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
Compared with what is nearby
Within 50 km straight line. Measured the same way, so the ranks compare directly. Ski areas a few kilometres apart share a weather grid cell and can return the same figure.

When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
Month by month, the most snow falls in January. March brings 62% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Austria (75%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. In amount, March brings 48 cm, about the same as the median of 49 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 243 cm, and 6 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2025/26 with 167 cm; the biggest was 2018/19 with 461 cm (2.8 times as much).
Snowfall each winter (December–March total). The dashed line is the average; the numbers mark the leanest and the biggest winter.
Runs and lifts
Counted from the runs and lifts drawn on OpenStreetMap, within the boundary of the ski area. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
