Discover Saalbach

Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn provides one of Europe’s most exciting ski circuses. The attractive villages may be only four kilometres apart (Saalbach is the larger resort of the two with a charming centre with stylish shops and cafés) but they form a vast Skicircus in the picturesque Glemm valley.

As for the skiing – it’s really excellent. With 270km of pistes and 70 lifts this valley is an intermediates' dream. But there’s plenty of excellent off-piste available too. And don’t miss the long, flowing run down to neighbouring Leogang – often overlooked by visiting skiers. It’s a wonderful long north-facing run all the way down to Leogang. With perhaps a quick pit stop at the rustic Kraller Alm chalet.
