Snow Chains: Snow chains are highly recommended and are available at many petrol stations as well as in the Sparmarkt Schröcken.
The access roads to Warth-Schröcken are regularly cleared, but winter road conditions can still be challenging. It is advisable to check the current weather and road conditions before you travel. Use weather apps or traffic information services to stay up-to-date.
Road closure in winter.
