Description
Saalbach is renowned for being one of Austia's best ski areas in terms of the excellent range of piste. The area has 200kms of piste available, catering well for most abilities. Hinterglemm and Leogang are interconnected to the resort. The village centre has all the character that you come to expect of an Austrian ski village, and it's fair share of nightlife. On good powder days it offers tremendous off piste opportunities. Alternatively, soak up the sunny slopes in one of the many mountain restaurants whilst you enjoy the fantastic views.
