Avalanche forecast for Thursday 16 April 2026.

Wet snow represents the main danger.

all day it applies moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two.

all day, we have a wet snow problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.

Wet avalanches can in some places be released by a single winter sport participant. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep west, north and east facing slopes at elevated altitudes. Avalanches can in isolated cases release the saturated snowpack and reach medium size. As the day progresses the likelihood of wet avalanches being released will increase.

And now the snowpack:

The snowpack will be wet all the way through over a wide area. The surface of the snowpack will only just freeze and will soften quickly. In particular on steep sunny slopes as well as below approximately 1800 m only a little snow is now lying.

The tendency for Friday 17 April 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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