Hi,

my experience is: Soll may be without snow in the valley but there will
be definitely snow up on the mountain in January. If there is no snow,
you won't have satisfying conditions anywhere in Tyrol.

And to comment AH: we have a nice continuous Winter this year (I am
located in Munich as AH), but it is not very unusual. I don't remember
more than one or two seasons in the last twenty years in which it was
impossible to ski down to the valley in january.

We got back from Soll just over a week ago. It was our first ski holiday for
about 10 years and a return to Soll after 25 years. The snow is fantastic
this year, as good or even better than in 1980 and 1981.

We'd like to book to go back next year, but I realise how lucky we've been
this year. What has Soll and the Skiwelt been like in recent years when they
have had to rely on artificial snow? We'd plan on going either the first or
third week in January.

Cheers

There might be snow up top, but with a max vertical of 800 m, and loss
of snow in the valley cuts of runs below the gondola. And that means a
vertical of a few hundred meters.

This is true of most of Aaustria. If you dont mind yo-yo runs than OK,
but if you like more than a k vertical, then you are better off in a
cheap French resort like Risoul, which has good snow, height, and size.
