The 2014/15 winter season is going to be a long one. Despite spring weather in most of Europe skiing remains good in the Alps and even more snow is on the way. Only this week there was a huge dump across the board with more than 1 metre snowfall in places. The next couple of weeks are going to offer good skiing not only at glacier ski areas but in lower parts of the Alps, too. Let’s have a look at some deals for late season skiing.
If you consider early bird skiing in December snow might be a bit of concern. Obviously everyone likes to be sure about conditions at the beginning of winter. Not in 2013.
It is already snowing throughout the Alps.
Hands up: Who’s heard of Grossglockner? No? It’s not surprising; it doesn’t make the list of mountains for discussion over the dinner table very often. Nevertheless, you should have heard of it. Grossglockner is on a par with Mont Blanc when it comes to prominence within the Alpine mountain range. It’s the highest mountain in Austria at 3,798m, and Pasterze, the biggest glacier in the country, lies at its base. And if you’re the active, outdoorsy type, there is so much to do on this mountain.
We have worked hard on improving Europe-Mountains.com during the summer. We may have not managed before the first snow, but chances are the improvements we made will help you find and book an excellent ski holiday.
