Autumn is an exciting time on the Feuerkogel, because while the days are still sunny and warm, we start preparing for the upcoming winter season. A crucial step in this process is the positioning of our snow cannons, which will ensure that our pistes are covered with sufficient snow for the opening.
At this time of year, when the leaves are glowing in bright colours and the temperatures are slowly dropping, our tractors are out and about strategically placing the snow cannons on the slopes of the mountain. Even when the sun is shining in the sky, it is important that the snow cannons are ready in time to start working in the cold season. Our employees check the machines and make sure that everything is working optimally so that snow can be produced immediately when the first frosty nights arrive.

The special thing about this process is that it requires both technical precision and a dose of anticipation. The snow cannons transform cold water and air into fine snow crystals, and these are essential to create the best conditions for our winter sports enthusiasts. We use the sunny autumn days to prepare everything so that we can get started as soon as the first frosty nights arrive.
It's also a time when we can enjoy the beauty of the mountain. As we work on the machines, we gaze out at the impressive landscapes and look forward to the snowfall ahead. When the first flakes fall, we are ready to cover the slopes with a thick layer of powder snow.
The autumn = spring of the winter
With the support of our snow cannons and the careful planning of our team, we are well equipped to start a successful winter season. We can't wait to see you on the slopes soon and share unforgettable experiences!
