How these numbers are calculated
  • Powder day — at least 15cm of new snow in 24 hours.
  • Bluebird day — sunshine for at least 60% of daylight, following at least 10cm of snow over the previous 3 days.
  • Rain day — at least 1mm of rain (not snow) at this elevation.
  • Skiable day — at least 30cm of settled snow on the ground.
  • Snow depth is modelled from Open-Meteo / ERA5 reanalysis at 1299m, not measured at the resort. Use it to compare seasons and resorts; use the resort's own report for today's conditions.

Is Söll a good place to ski or board?

it sees more rain than most

On 10 years of record, Söll is a mixed picture: it sees more rain than most. It can still ski well in a good year — 2018/19 produced 515cm — but the averages argue for flexibility on timing.

Figures are modelled at 1299m from reanalysis data and describe an average year, not a forecast.

When is the best time to ski or board Söll, and when does the season end?

Söll typically holds at least 30cm of settled snow from around 11 December through to 5 April, which works out at roughly 117 days of skiable cover in an average year. 107 of those fall inside the November to May season. On season length that is about average compared with the 40 other resorts we have analysed the same way.
