Austria is kicking off December in style this year, as Lech Zürs announced the opening of 8 resorts in the Arlberg region today.

St Anton is expecting more snowfall early next week to add to their 130cm on the mountain, and Solden has some great conditions with 186cm of snow at the summit already, with more expected on Monday.

The Italian resorts of Val di Fassa, Pila and Kronplatz have also been getting a dusting of the white stuff in preparation for their season to start later in the month.

Last but not least, we can’t leave out Bled in Slovenia, who tweeted this photo of their first snow of the season. They have a sunny week ahead, but are hoping for more snow on Friday.
