Forecast today: Broken clouds
But if you do, expect some varied skiing, long descents and uphill travel via arguably the world’s best lift system – most of the lifts are fast gondolas or high-capacity chairlifts.
With so much terrain to explore, why not let Ski Club Freshtracks take the strain and help you to discover this fantastic ski area this season?
Access to the local Asitz mountain above the village is via two gondolas, but absolute beginners will want to stick to the valley’s learning areas. Long runs drop back down to the village through the woods – these can be a blast first thing in the morning when freshly groomed. From the summit, three fast 8-seater chairs and a 6-pack serve short, gentle slopes but more importantly link in with the Saalbach valley.
Once in the Saalbach valley, a vast network of pistes opens up. These are mostly well-groomed blues and reds – of which the long blue 2b is a favourite.
Advanced skiers should head to the steep, ungroomed slopes above Fieberbrunn – you can get here either by skiing via Hinterglemm and the TirolS gondola or by catching a bus up the valley from Leogang – or to the steep groomed pistes beneath Schattberg.
Compared to the bustle and buzz of Saalbach and Hinterglemm, Leogang is a much quieter base from which to explore the Skicircus. Family-run hotels – most of which are well equipped with spa facilities – dominate the accommodation offering and most are only a stone’s throw away from the lifts.
Away from the slopes, cross country skiing and winter walking are major attractions here. Just up the valley is Hochfilzen, host each year to the Biathlon World Cup, which is home to some of Austria’s best cross country routes.
Connections between Leogang and the rest of the Ski Circus (Saalbach, Hinterglemm and Fieberbrunn) open on Friday 6 December 2024 and close 13 April 2025.

Updated 17/02
Steady snowfall continues for much of Austria, helping relieve what has so-far been an historically bad season. Main ski areas to the west will receive around 20cm of snowfall across most elevations, helped as the freezing line plummets to sea level overnight into Wednesday. Flurries will continue throughout Wednesday with plenty of cloud around, and temperatures rising as the freezing line recovers to 2,000m.
Another belt of snow will come in over Thursday bringing around a foot of snow to areas across the country – north and south of the main alpine ridge. The freezing line will hover around 1,500m meaning upper elevations will get the best of this snow, but cool mornings and evenings will result in snow reaching most elevations.
Things remain cold as the week wraps up, with the threat of sunshine becoming stronger in easterly areas. Snow however continues well into the weekend, with sunday promising excellent skiing conditions across the region.
