sehr schlecht

Die Hauptabfahrt Nord wird wegen Saisonende nicht mehr präpariert und ist deshalb gesperrt, die Hauptabfahrt Süd (Naturschneeabfahrt) wegen zu geringer Schneeauflage gesperrt. Die beiden Anfängerlifte bei den Talstationen Nord und Süd sind wegen Schneemangel geschlossen! Langlauf am Ochsenkopf ist nicht mehr möglich. Die Winterwanderwege sind begehbar, aber vor allem in höheren Lagen teilweise vereist.
