Ski region is booming: 7,000 skiers storm Warth-Schröcken!
Winter sports are booming in the Austrian Alps! There were already 7,000 skiers active in Warth-Schröcken today, while in Kleinwalsertal the number of ski guests has increased by an impressive 15 percent since the beginning of December. Dietmar Tschohl, managing director of Klosterthaler Bergbahnen, reports that the Sonnenkopf in Klösterle has been at full capacity for three days. The parking shortage is also getting worse: Shortly after midday, all day parking spaces in the popular ski resorts of Lech and Zürs were full. The golden rule of winter sports enthusiasts seems to apply: get up early to get the perfect spot!
Increasing popularity of ski areas
The smaller but charming development in ski areas such as Bödele or Schetteregg shows that there is also a lot of activity away from the big lifts. According to cable car spokesman Andreas Gapp, there has also been a noticeable increase of 15 percent in skiers here since the beginning of December. All parking spaces were already completely full in the morning. This skier-friendly weather attracts both casual and passionate skiers, and the enthusiasm for winter sports is reflected in the statistics.
The worldwide popularity of skiing cannot be underestimated. According to current statistics from Statista, many countries have a high proportion of skiers in the population. These figures not only underline the growth of winter sports tourism, but also show that enthusiasm for snow sports is constantly increasing globally. This refers to data showing that the proportion of skiers in the population is consistently high in many countries, further reinforcing the importance of winter sports in society, such as Statista documented.
The 2024 winter season offers an exciting experience for all winter sports enthusiasts not only in the local ski resorts but also internationally. Have your ski equipment ready and enjoy the picturesque mountain landscape that is perfect for skiing!
