After the great Christmas and New Year conditions in Mayrhofen and the Zillertal Valley, the start of January is set to bring more of the same, or rather more of the more – a huge weather system is camped over the Austria Alps and the Zillertal Valley is one of the regions that is set to get serious amounts of snow over the coming days – the avalanche level is already at 4 from a possible 5. Heavy snow is forecast for the coming 5 days so if it ever breaks then mid-next week should be a very fine time to be skiing or snowboarding in Mayrhofen – so long as the avalanche risks drops off of course
