In the mountains, including Mallnitz, the weather can change within a very short time. Especially in summer, local thunderstorms (see YouTube below) can also form at any time and anywhere. The weather forecast therefore plays a decisive role in planning your vacation, tours and day. In the fall, when the earth no longer heats up so much and then has to cool down again, the weather becomes more stable and visibility increases – ideal for hiking and mountain tours.
In the following we would like to present those websites that we use for our tour planning and recommend to guests at Apartments Hohenberger

Inversion weather situation Mallnitz
If the upper layers of air are warmer than the lower ones, this is known as an inversion. This mainly occurs in the fall and winter months. It is often cloudy and cool in the valleys, but sunny and mild on the mountains – just like autumn in the mountains .
Weather divide Hohe Tauern
Mountain ranges act as weather divides or weather borders. The most pronounced weather divide in Austria is the Hohe Tauern, as you can often experience on a trip through the ÖBB Tauernschleuse.
This is particularly advantageous for the snow conditions on the Ankogel:
- The ski area benefits from an Italian low until the clouds have “emptied out” and
- The Ankogel ski area is always affected by a low on the north side of the Hohe Tauern.
