Update of the avalanche forecast for Sunday 25 January 2026.

The new snow and wind slabs of the last few days must be evaluated with care and prudence.

all day it applies above the treeline moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two, below low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

all day, above the treeline, we have a wind slab problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East. Furthermore, all day, above the treeline, we have a persistent weak layer problem. This in all aspects.

The fresh snow as well as the mostly small wind slabs that are forming over a wide area are in some cases prone to triggering. These can be released in the weakly bonded old snow by a single winter sport participant. Caution is to be exercised in particular on very steep shady slopes, as well as adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls in particular above the tree line. Mostly avalanches are small. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. Weak layers in the old snowpack necessitate caution and restraint. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.

And now the snowpack:

The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. In some regions 20 to 40 cm of snow has fallen above approximately 1200 m. The fresh snow and the wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence in particular on steep shady slopes. The old snowpack is faceted. Individual weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack on wind-protected shady slopes.

The tendency for Monday 26 January 2026 indicates an increasing avalanche danger.

Have a nice day and don't forget to be careful!
