Resort A
Saalbach
Salzburg, Austria
Saalbach is a major ski resort in Salzburg, Austria, centred on the linked villages of Saalbach, Hinterglemm, Leogang and Fieberbrunn. The Skicircus provides 270km of pistes with fast modern lifts and an ALPIN CARD pass that also connects with wider regional skiing. Terrain is strongest for intermediates, but there are extensive blues for progression and enough steeper sectors and freeride terrain to keep advanced skiers interested.
The area is not among the highest in the Alps, yet broad snowmaking coverage and efficient grooming usually keep conditions dependable through most of the core season. The village atmosphere is lively and social, with traditional Austrian hotels, busy bar streets and easy movement between ski bases. It is particularly known for its circuit skiing, hut network and famous slope-side après venues.
