Why choose this resort?

Saalbach-Hinterglemm stands as one of Austria’s premier ski resorts, and with perfection comes well-groomed slopes across an all-encompassing piste network. Both villages are bursting with traditional character and are known for their lively après-ski options.

A ski area of 270 km extending across the Ski Circus offers up a selection of great runs and a comprehensive lift system. Time can be maximised on the slopes thanks to the twin resorts’ wide-ranging infrastructure providing excellent links. 

On the slopes

From Saalbach

Groups on a school ski trip to Saalbach can enjoy a number of slopes suited to beginners looking to gain confidence, including nursery slopes located down in the village by the ski school meeting points. Beginners can start the week in the less-crowded area of Leogang connected to Saalbach. The intermediates in your group will head further up the mountain, where a ski circus of wide-open blues and challenging reds will have the most seasoned skiers perfecting their parallel turns.

The black runs from the top of the Schattberg and Zwölfer mountains give advanced skiers some testing terrain before venturing to the powder stashes on the north side of the valley. The internationally renowned snowboard parks will keep the keenest of freestyle boarders happy, while the mogul runs available to the more experienced skiers within your group will keep the knees shaking all the way back to the hotel. 

From Hinterglemm

From the heart of Hinterglemm, skiers can enjoy direct access to a wide variety of pistes suitable for all levels of ability. The excellent English-speaking ski school ensures that groups make great progress throughout their stay. Beginners can start on the practice slopes right behind the property, while more experienced skiers can use the magic carpet to reach piste 8a and explore the Ski Circus area.

The resort offers plenty of exciting features on the slopes, including panoramic viewing platforms, race courses, snow parks, adventure runs, speed tracks, and photo points. With its ski-in, ski-out convenience and stunning views over the Hinterglemm Valley, this destination truly offers something for everyone!
