Splitboarding in Kaunertal, Austria: High Alpine Big Mountain Riding in the Alps Generally there is very little snow in the Alps at the moment. There was some early season snow especially in the Arlberg region a couple of weeks ago but most of that has been melted and rained away. So if you want to find some interesting skiing and touring – go up high! the Kaunertal is a glacier ski area opened most of the year. It’s located in south/west Austria right on the Italien boarder.
