Update of the avalanche forecast for Wednesday 25 March 2026.

For those venturing off piste a sometimes precarious avalanche situation will prevail.

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

all day, above the treeline, we have a new snow problem. This in all aspects.

The large quantity of fresh snow and the extensive wind slabs that are forming in all aspects can be released easily or naturally above the tree line. Avalanches can be triggered in near-surface layers and reach medium size. Additionally in isolated cases avalanches can penetrate near-ground layers of the snowpack, especially on shady slopes.

And now the snowpack:

40 to 60 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall. The wind will be strong to storm force. The wind will transport the new snow significantly. Deep wind slabs will form. The new snow and wind slabs will be deposited on soft layers above the tree line, especially on northwest, north and northeast facing slopes. Isolated avalanche prone weak layers exist in the bottom section of the old snowpack.

The tendency for Thursday 26 March 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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