Weather at Gargellen

Weather at Gargellen: a six-day forecast for three elevations of the mountain. Temperature, precipitation, wind and cloud cover from MET Norway. Updated several times a day.

What the weather at Gargellen is usually like

The ski area runs from 1,423 to 2,300 m above sea level - a 877 m vertical. In January the daytime average is 0 °C at the base and -6 °C at the summit. Plan for that 6 °C gap: what feels right at the base will be cold up top.

Average daytime highs at the summit stay below freezing from December through March. Last season brought 357 cm of snow here. The snowiest month was January: 108 cm over 8 days with snowfall. The snowpack was deepest in March, at roughly 87 cm. These are observations from a single season, not a long-term norm: a snowy year here can be twice a lean one.

Snowmaking covers 70% of the runs, so the start of the season barely depends on when natural snow arrives. The season usually runs from 22 November to 12 April.

By March the base is around 5 °C while the summit still holds -1 °C: on days like that, start early and stay high. Based on monthly averages and the resort elevations. For the coming days, see the forecast above.
