Despite high temperatures: Carinthian ski areas are hoping for holidaymakers

Despite unusually warm temperatures in February, Carinthia continues to offer excellent slope conditions, especially in the higher-altitude ski areas. Although there are already cyclists and golfers in the valley, the slopes in the mountains are holding up and invite skiers and snowboarders to unforgettable descents.

Even if the weather in the valley is already reminiscent of spring, the nights on the mountains are still cool enough to offer the best slope conditions. The conditions on the higher slopes are excellent. Gerhard Hohenwarter from GeoSphere Austria says: “February 2024 is already the warmest in the history of measurements. Nevertheless, we are still in winter, which means that the sunlight is not that strong yet and the nights are longer than the days, so the snow can hold on well on the slopes.”

In the larger ski areas, all lifts are in operation and offer guests unrestricted skiing pleasure. Klaus Ehrenbrandtner, Managing Director of Kärnten Werbe: “We are pleased that despite the unusually warm temperatures in February, the ski conditions in Carinthia are still first-class. Thanks to the most modern snowmaking systems and the excellent work of the Carinthian mountain railways, all lifts in the higher areas are open and the slopes are in excellent condition.”
