Mölltaler Glacier is a small, high ski area with a big vertical: 16 runs and 36 kilometres of piste fall 1,014 metres from the 3,122-metre Schareck summit to the base at 2,108 metres. The terrain is more demanding than its size suggests, with 56% intermediate, 26% advanced and 18% beginner pistes, and everything sits above the treeline. The Gletscher Express brings skiers to the upper zone around the Eissee, from where wide, high-altitude pistes spread out towards Schareck and suit carving at speed.

The 7-kilometre Eissee FIS run is the highest descent of its kind in Carinthia and gives strong skiers a long, challenging piste back towards the valley. For freeriders, two freeride zones sit below the summit, and the best lift-accessed off-piste terrain is directly beneath Schareck. A snowpark with wave tracks, kickers and a boardercross course adds variety. With only eight lifts and few runs, it works best as a short stay for confident skiers or as a day trip paired with the Ankogel area.

Mölltaler Glacier runs from mid-October through to the end of May, with the 2025–26 season open from 10 October 2025 to 31 May 2026. Annual snowfall averages 5.5 metres across the ski area, and the glacier's position above 2,100m ensures consistent coverage well into spring. The resort's south-facing Carinthian aspect delivers above-average sunshine hours relative to the Austrian average, making it particularly appealing for spring skiing in April and May when crowds thin considerably.

The extended season draws national race teams from Austria and Germany throughout autumn and winter, taking advantage of the perfectly groomed slopes and the Carinthia's highest FIS piste. The Glacier Snowpark typically opens from March, with spring conditions sustaining the kickers and boardercross course through to the season close.
