Avalanche forecast for Wednesday 1 April 2026.

New snow and wind slabs represent the main danger.

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

all day, above the treeline, we have a new snow problem. This in all aspects. Furthermore, all day, above 2200 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East. Furthermore, all day, below the treeline, we have a new snow problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.

The large quantity of fresh snow and the extensive wind slabs can be released easily, even by a single winter sport participant,. The fresh and older wind slabs are covered with new snow and therefore difficult to recognise. Avalanches can reach medium size, especially above the tree line. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack serve as an alarm indicating the danger. Avalanches can in isolated cases penetrate near-ground layers of the snowpack and reach large size, especially on very steep west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2200 m. In addition small to medium-sized loose snow avalanches are possible, in the event of prolonged bright spells especially on extremely steep slopes. Isolated small and medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible in particular on very steep grassy slopes.

And now the snowpack:

Over a wide area 30 to 50 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen. The strong wind has transported the new snow significantly. In some cases the various wind slabs have bonded still only poorly together. The old snowpack will be weakly bonded in some places, especially on west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2200 m.

The tendency for Thursday 2 April 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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