Last update: 25/01/12 Ski regions succeed with WLAN
IT experts in charge of providing two of Austria’s biggest ski
resorts have said they are satisfied with tourists’ response to the new
offer.
Salzburg’s winter sport resort of Amade and the Sölden glacier region,
East Tyrol, as well as several other resorts across the country set up
free of charge wireless local area network (WLAN) connections at lift
stations and information centres.
The organisers masterminding the projects at Amade and Sölden glacier
told the Kurier newspaper today (Thurs) that skiers and snowboarders
reacted positively to the opportunity. More than 12,000 holidaymakers
logged in with their smartphones and notebooks at Amade so far this
month, according to the paper’s report.
Holiday industry experts think that services such as the most recent
provision with WLAN internet access are developing into a decisive
criterion of people when it comes to choosing their holiday destination.
They also underline the various positive effects for the holiday
regions if tourists send pictures and texts to friends and families on a
regular basis this way.
The number of skiing regions but also summer holiday destinations across
Austria considering the introduction of such services is allegedly on
the rise despite the need to make financial cuts here and there.
Analysts think that most areas eyeing up such investments would
eventually go for it due to fears of falling behind in competition with
towns and cities which opted for free WLAN services.
Now winter sport regions are working on the introduction of WLAN access
on ski lifts and cable cars to attract more fans of multimedia
technology. Vienna has been an immensely positive aspect of the domestic
tourism sector’s performance in recent years as far as overnight stay
records are regarded. However, the city is struggling to catch up with
industrialised areas abroad when it comes to providing free of charge
WLAN in public places. 16/01/12 Two people die on slopes of Salzburg
Two people died on Sunday while skiing in Salzburg.A 70-year-old Pole
died on the Aineck, Katschberg, Lungau. The lifeless man had been found
by other skiers on the slopes.
Four randomly passing doctors from Germany tried to resuscitate the
tourist but to no avail. The team flying in on the rescue helicopter
could only confirm the man's death. The police suspect he died of
natural causes.
A 53-year-old German died suddenly on Sunday on the slopes in the
Pinzgau region. The man was skiing in Saalbach and suddenly collapsed
and was found lifeless on the slopes.
Three passers-by and ski rescuers provided first aid. When the ambulance arrived it could only confirm his death.
report by Luis Monse 10/01/12 Ski resorts forced to close as a result of too much snow
Ski resorts forced to remain closed by a lack of snow in December
have now been forced to close many runs because of too much snow.
Ski resorts across Austria and Switzerland say they are now struggling
to cope after metres of snow combined with high winds and stormy
conditions over the past 48 hours left runs blocked or in danger of
avalanches.
Changeable temperatures combined with high winds and new snow has put
many ski resorts across Tirol, Salzburg and Vorarlberg on high avalanche
alert. Temperatures are expected to drop dramatically over the weekend
and winds today (Friday) have already reached over 170 kph making
conditions even more treacherous.
Avalanche experts are working around the clock to assess the risks and
where necessary and possible are carrying out controlled detonations.
Rudi Mair, manager of the avalanche action team in Tirol said: "With
winds peaking at 170 kph we can safely talk about a hurricane. Heavy new
snow, freezing temperatures and the hurricane we are talking about high
risk. The avalanche risk across Tirol is high and it will rise.
The high winds in particular are a threat to ski lifts which have been
forced to close as the winds from "Hurricane Andrea" are too high -
making conditions highly dangerous. The high winds also risk dislodging
snow from high peaks.
Herbert Kaufmann form Dornbirn Seilbahn AG - the lift company in
Dornbirn, Voarlberg said: "We have around twenty people stuck in the
restaurant at the top of the mountain still as we are unable to put the
lifts back into action. But at least the chef is stuck too and he can
make food."
Winter safety expert Erich Schwarzler from the Austrian province of
Vorarlberg said: "We are on high alert, we have army helicopters and
avalanche teams on 24 hour standby.
The avalanche risk in Tirol is already on the second highest risk level 4
and is expected to rise over the next 24 hours possibly to the highest
risk level 5.
There has been a high number of avalanche deaths over the past few days
in Austria and many others injured. Earlier this week a group of four
ski guides from Vorarlberg, Austria, were buried beneath a mound of
snow whilst skiing in Graubunden, Switzerland and two of them died as a
result.
Meanwhile Tirol rescuers reported yesterday (Thurs) they were attending
an emergency call out nearly once a minute between 17.00 and 18.00 in
the Austrian Alps due to the severe weather conditions. Police in Tirol
confirmed thousands of households have been left without power as a
result of the weather conditions.
Many roads have been blocked and passes are completely impassable in
popular ski areas such as Lech, Zurs and Warth. Poeple have had to be
rescued form cars including four people who were rescued from their snow
covered car in Upper Austria last night (Thurs).
Rescuers expect a busy weekend. Anton Mattle, mayor of Galtuer and
Paznaun in the Tirol has assures the region "is ready to cope with the
conditions"
"In the worst case scenario we are ready to evacuate people living in
affected areas. We have rescuers and helicopters on standby if the
conditions deteriorate to dangerous levels in affected areas."
18/11/11 Ski slopes getting ready to open.
Most areas will be opening the lifts in the first week of December..and at the moment the weather patterns look good...nice sunny days with the temperatures dropping fast. So hopefully we bypass the rain stage and go straight for the SNOW! 28/03/11
Boarder barely harmed in 40-metre fall A 21-year-old boarder sustained nothing but a few bruises as he plunged down a 40-metre embankment.
Christian Egger and his Finnish girlfriend decided to leave prepared
slopes to go snowboarding in deep snow at the Stubai glacier on
Saturday. The different layers of snow moved and Egger fell around 40
metres after he stopped at the edge of a cliff to walk back up the hill.
"Leaving prepared pistes was a foolish thing to do. I’m lucky and I learned my lesson," the Austrian said today (Mon).
Only last Wednesday, two skiers got away with slight injuries after
plunging down a 15-metre ravine in the Krippenstein mountain range in
Upper Austria. The men, aged 30 and 31, sustained bruises and head
injuries in the incident.
24/02/11
Night-time skier hits tree A Lower Austrian man suffered serious head injuries in a ski accident yesterday evening (Weds).
The 35-year-old from Wiener Neustadt hit a tree after coming off a slope
in the Semmering winter sport resort during a night-time skiing
session.
Another man, who witnessed the incident as he skied down on the same
piste, called mountain rescuers who rescued the unconscious skier. The
man – who was wearing a crash helmet – is currently recovering in a
hospital in his hometown.
The accident happened exactly one week after an 11-year-old boy from the
Czech Republic came off the track and crashed against a tree during a
skiing competition in Hochficht, Upper Austria.
Night-time sledging puts woman in Hospital
A 33-year-old woman sustained serious head injuries when she crashed against a tree during a night-time sledging session.
The woman was sharing the sledge with a female friend, 28, who only
suffered minor injuries in the incident which occurred at the Semmering
Mountain in Lower Austria’s Neunkirchen district on Friday night. The
severely injured woman was hospitalised in Neunkirchen.
The accident happened only days after a young girl suffered massive head
injuries in a freak sledging accident in Frankenfels near St. Pölten.
The four-year-old child crashed against a truck driving along a road on
the bottom of a hill she sledged down. The kid was dragged along by the
truck for around 20 metres before its driver eventually realised what
happened. She is recovering at a clinic in St. Pölten.
01/12/10 Ski areas and lifts open in Austria The weekend just past, saw the opening of most ski areas...much to the happiness of avid skiers and children alike! .............And a survey has reported that Austria is way ahead of Switzerland in the popularity charts!
Schladming 'best ski resort in the Alps' The Austrian winter sport resort of Schladming has been named the best in the Alps!
Schladming in Styria topped the poll conducted among 18,000
holidaymakers by tourism marketing and consulting agency
Mountain
Management.
The Swiss company said Lech-Zürs in the western Austrian province of
Vorarlberg came second ahead of Switzerland’s Aletsch Arena. Forty
different resorts were rated for staff friendliness, slopes quality and
their "fun factor" among other criteria. This result comes on the heels of a survey identifying Schladming’s Planai piste as the best in Europe.
Germany’s leading motorists association ADAC said its testers found the
slope and the Fellhorn slope in Oberstdorf, Germany, as the best in the
Alps.
ADAC explained they asked ski instructors to examine 20 of the
continent’s most popular resorts for their safety conditions, standard
of piste preparation and accessibility. The Planai and Fellhorn slopes
were the only ones awarded the top grade!
Schladming, which is located an hour’s drive from Salzburg Airport,
managed to sign American pop singer' Kesha' and rock band 'One Republic' to
perform at its season opening party this Saturday (4 December).
Meanwhile, a consumer information magazine has revealed that many
Austrian ski resorts increased lift pass prices by over 10 per cent
during the past four years.
Konsument reports rates at most checked resorts rose twice as much as
the inflation rate between the 2006/2007 season and the current winter
period.
The magazine explained that the consumer price index – which considers
certain aspects of people’s lives in relation to the inflation rate –
increased by 7.5 per cent during the past four years, while lift tickets
prices climbed by 10 per cent or more in the vast majority of resorts
at the same time.
Austria has been one of the most important winter sport holiday
destinations for decades. Around 56.1 million overnight stays were
recorded in the country between November 2009 and last March, up by 1.3
per cent year on year.

First snow hits Austria Dozens of cars got stuck on snow-covered Alpine roads across Austria last night (Sun/Mon).
Motorists must now equip their vehicles with snow chains on several pass roads in
Tyrol, Vorarlberg, Salzburg and Styria as the snow line dropped to 1,000 metres altitude on the weekend.
Car clubs ÖAMTC and Arbö warned of hazardous driving conditions on icy roads for example the B99
Katschberg road bordering Salzburg and Carinthia.
Tyrol’s B186 Timmelsjoch road and the L704 Sölk pass in Styria had to be closed to
traffic due to dozens of centimetres of freshly fallen snow.
Meteorologists announced today that valleys across the Austrian Alps must brace
themselves for the first snowfalls on Wednesday when the snow line will
reach an altitude of 500 metres.
Eastern Austria is, meanwhile, set for more rainfalls and strong winds this week.
19/04/10 German boy seriously injured in freak sledging crash
An eleven-year-old boy is in a critical state after a sledging
accident in Vorarlberg.
Lech am Arlberg authorities said today (Thurs) the German tourist
plunged down an almost vertical embankment after smashing through a
safety net at a toboggan track on Tuesday evening.
Officials said the child, from Ahrensburg in the German state of
Schleswig-Holstein, was hospitalised with serious injuries after the
six-metre fall.
More than 58,100 of the ten million people skiing, snowboarding and
sledging in the Austrian Alps in the 2008/2009 winter season ended up in
hospital, according to statistics provided by the Austrian Committee
for Traffic Safety (KfV).
14/03/10 Lift operator in clinic after snowmobile overturns
A ski lift operator was hospitalised after crashing on a snowmobile
yesterday (Thurs).
Authorities in Hirschegg, Vorarlberg, said today the man, 49, was
driving the "Ski-Doo" vehicle uphill towards a lift's peak station when
he failed to get further after hitting an icy spot.
The snowmobile then skidded down around 200 metres before it overturned
in a hollow. Its driver was seriously injured when he was hurled off it.
Officials said he was helicoptered to a clinic in Immenstadt, Germany.
Meanwhile the Austrian Committee for Traffic Safety (KfV) is set to
release skiing accident figures for the ending season shortly.
The institution said ahead of the cold season it expected around 56,000
of the nine to ten million people skiing or snowboarding on the
country's slopes to end up in hospital this season.
Its statistics showed that 58,100 people had suffered injuries during
the previous winter season.
Austria finish Vancouver Olympics in top ten
The Austrian Olympic team can look back with satisfaction at the
Vancouver Games, with the country finishing in the top ten of winners.
Austria ranks in ninth pl;ace with four gold, six silver and six bronze medals. Austria also takes joint first place with Russia, finishing in fourth in 86 events. But the team’s biggest disappointment is the bad performance of the men’s Alpine skiing team who failed to reach the podium.
The Austrian Skiing Federation (ÖSV) invests more money than any other
body into its World Cup Alpine skiing team and the infrastructure built
up around it. It was the first time Austria’s male skiing team failed to win any
silverware at the Olympic Games with the exception of the 1936 event
when Austria’s skiers were banned for breaching the amateur state rules
against working as ski instructors.
Benjamin Raich, who won gold in the 2006 Olympic slalom and giant
slalom, said after finishing fourth in Saturday’s slalom, "The whole
team is extremely disappointed, of course."
ÖSV president Peter Schröcksnadel claimed: "Everyone who says our
system is wrecked is wrong. What are you supposed to do if so many
athletes finish in fourth?"
Schröcksnadel dismissed calls coaches must be replaced. He however said
he was considering a change to certain structures. It is expected that
the skiing training group system will be restructured.
Skiers safe after lift mistake
Two Upper Austrian skiers were rescued on Sunday after taking the wrong lift up a mountain.
The pair found themselves on the Krippenstein, 500 metres higher than
their intended destination, Krippenbrunn in Upper Austria’s Gmunden
district, police said.
Despite their mistake and the late hour, they decided to ski down the
mountain. After losing their way and then finding it again, they found
the pads on the bottom of their skis that gave them improved traction
on the snow were no longer functioning properly.
At that point, they called the mountain rescue service. Several members
went to their location and gave them new pads. The rescuers then
escorted them to a waiting piste grooming machine on which they rode
down to the valley floor.

Paralytic on the piste: How record numbers of drunken Britons are suffering horrific accidents in the Alps
07/02/10
Call for night time skiing ban Graz. Calls
have been made for a ban on night skiing after a woman was left in a
coma after an accident as she skied down a mountain in the dark. The
Styrian cable-car operators’ division
called for the ban after a 45-year-old was left in a coma following an
accident at the Hauser Kaibling ski area. She had been making her way
down to the valley floor at 11pm after visiting a mountain hut when she
skied into a cable running from a piste packing machine to a pole and
was left hanging by her neck. Doctors said she would probably be
handicapped for the rest of her life if she survived. Styrian cable-car
operators’ division head, Peter Lackner said ' any ban would be
difficult to agree on as interest of officials and restaurant owners
would differ'. 3/01/10

Avalanche warnings for Alpine regions Innsbruck. Authorities
have issued avalanche warnings after heavy snowfalls in the Alps.
Experts at the Avalanche-Warning Service said heavy snow in East Tyrol
and along the Alpine divide had created a "precarious” situation in
many areas. But they said they expected the situation to returns to
normal over the coming days. Conditions above 2,500-metres were
most dangerous with regions like the southern Ötz Valley and the Stubai
Alps most at risk of avalanches. Skiers were warned of skiing down
shadowy, steep slopes with large amounts of freshly-fal- len snow as it
could increase the chance of sudden avalanches. Meanwhile fire brigades
in the western province of Vorarlberg were called out 35 times on
Monday night following the heavy snowfalls. 21/11/09
Winter Sports Injuries worry!
More than 50,000 people will be hospitalised in skiing accidents on
Austria’s slopes this season, safety experts have predicted.
The
Committee for Traffic Safety (KfV) said it expected 56,000 of the nine
to 10 million people who will ski in Austria this winter season will
end up in hospital.
The KfV added there had been 58,100 people severely
injured during the last winter season. KfV announced every second
badly-injured skier and every third seriously injured snowboarder had
suffered broken bones last year, and 32 per cent of injured skiers and
17 per cent of injured snowboarders had suffered muscle or tendon
injuries.
It has now become local law at most slopes in Austria for those under the age of 15 years to wear a ski helmet, but we would advise that even adults over this age should wear a helmet. You can rent them pretty cheaply at all ski resorts....so don't take a chance, stay safe, get a helmet.

Snow, Snow and more snow!
Lots of new snow has attracted last minute visitors to Austria. It has snowed each day now for the past week, leaving perfect powder on most ski resorts. There has been lots of worry about the temperatures as this is leading to a higher avalanche risk. But that said what could be better than to ski with the sun on your face all day!! And as long as you keep to the pistes, there is little danger.
It is coming close to the end of the season now, but if the snow keeps falling the chances are the ski slopes will extend the season...yiphee!!
6/3/09
Ski Weather and Guests!

No we get lots of sun in the summer and it is so hot you can swim in the lakes!!
Something that never fails to amaze me is that so many people only think of Austria as being snow covered all year? This is not so...in the summer we have temperatures has hot as the Med! Reaching as much as 36 degrees!!

more beautiful than the other:
The Postalm ski area is almost on Strobl’s doorstep - a great family ski area 1200-1900m above sea level that offers something for everyone, whether you are a beginner or expert skier. After great investment last year , a modern 4-seater chair-lift was built to enhance the existing 8 lifts. There is also a escalator carpet which means that beginners do not have to worry about getting that blinking toggle between their legs without falling over!! There is a good ski school and also a childrens area so they do not have to negotiate with the adults for space! All the runs lead to the valley plateau, so you can be sure the youngsters will not get lost!
The 'Zwölferhorn mountain' near St. Gilgen offers great skiing also! The peak can be comfortably reached by cable car and also offers a fantastic panoramic view of the snowy horizons around the Wolfgangsee for those who choose not to ski.

Austria is not just a ski desitnation
Yes,
we know it is famous for its Alps! But, leaving aside ski-ing for a
moment, have you ever stopped to consider what is underneath all that
white stuff that people skim over at great speed?
Well
when the snow melts, out come the meadow flowers and the mountain
slopes are turned into a glorious canvas of yellow and green stretching
for as far as the eye can see. The Spring days are warm and the streams
gush crystal clear water as the mountain snows rapidly melt.
Then
there is summer in the mountains. No, not cold as you would think;
temperatures regularly reach the high 80s so, swimming in the lakes and
sunbathing are just as normal as on the Spanish costas! The cable cars
are filled with walkers and groups wanting to experience the heady
atmosphere of high altitude and the views that are afforded across the
alpine mountain ranges.
Following
behind these hot summers come the golden autumns, when the leaves on
the trees turn to shades of gold and burnished copper creating picture
postcard scenes. And of course, we have Winter, when the snow starts to
fall and the land goes to sleep.
So
then what is there to look forward to? A white christmas of course! The
fantastic Christ Kindel Markets in all large towns and cities. No
plastic decorations here! There is very little commercialism to be
found and Christmas is spent enjoying the event and not the gaudily
wrapped presents!
OK,
now comes the superb ski-season with some of the best mountain pistes
in the world with excellent skil areas to suit all standards. From the
beautiful Voralberg in the west to the vast Sports world Amade in the
central alps.
Added
to all this you have the Culture and music festivals all year.
Composers such as Mozart and Strauss are the best known but there are
many more. So, what are you waiting for? Look inside and find out what
is on offer in Austria.
