Avalanche situation
Ankogel-Hochalm Group (AT-02-03-01-01)
There is no current bulletin for this region. Avalanche bulletins are published during the winter season.
Mostly passes the bulletin on unchanged and judges neither slopes nor routes. The danger level applies to the whole region, not to a single slope.

Common questions
- How high is Hochalmspitze?
- Hochalmspitze stands at approx. 3360 m. The height comes from OpenStreetMap, rounded to the metre, and is not measured by Mostly.
- Why is mountain weather different from the forecast in the valley?
- It is colder up there, windier, and often in different cloud. So Mostly forecasts several heights and shows temperature, apparent temperature, wind, gusts and the freezing level per level, instead of writing a valley value onto a summit.
- Does this replace the avalanche bulletin?
- No. Mostly shows the official bulletin for the avalanche region Ankogel-Hochalm Group, with danger level and elevation band — written by the avalanche warning services. The judgement on the ground stays yours.
