Kaunertal Glacier Closes Early Despite Fresh Snow and More Forecast

Kaunertal Glacier is calling its 2025/26 season on May 17 - earlier than planned - despite picking up around 7 cm of fresh snow this week with more forecast before the weekend. Snow depths remain solid at altitude, but warm spells, operating costs, and low capacity utilisation have tipped the decision. The planned KTE snowpark event is also off.

Spring Glacier Skiing in Tyrol: Five Resorts Still Open Above 3,000 Metres

While most Austrian ski resorts have closed for the season, Tyrol's five glacier ski areas are still running well into spring. Hintertux, Pitztal, Stubai, Sölden, and Kaunertal all operate above 3,000 metres, offering reliable snow, warmer temperatures, and quieter slopes for anyone chasing late-season turns.
