But its not just about the lift system and the pistes, the two towns are vibrant but attractive places. Lively après ski bars make this a popular party resort, but don’t let this put you off as there are a lot of quieter parts and a great selection of good, family-run hotels.
Hinterglemm is home to the area’s best beginner zone, with several drags and magic carpets accessing sunny, gentle slopes. Progression from here on to long, cruisey blues is excellent, with an great selection of well-groomed, wide pistes to choose from across the Skicircus.
Confident intermediates will love the sense of travel that you can gain reaching the far extremes of the region. Head over to Leogang to avoid the crowds on busy days and the long runs down from Schattberg offer up 1000m of vertical and can be delightfully quiet. For more advanced skiers and boarders, the slopes of Fieberbrunn are world-class – indeed they are good enough to be a venue for the Freeride World Tour each winter.
Saalbach and Hinterglemm are separate villages, their centres 4km apart, which have expanded along the floor of their dead-end east-west valley. They haven’t quite merged, but a range of accommodation can be found in between the two. Both resorts, but Saalbach in particular, are noted for their vibrant, après ski and nightlife, with the party starting from 3pm and running till early morning.
Off the slopes, the Saalbach Valley is home to some excellent walking trails and groomed cross country routes. Up on the mountain, there are several tobogganing routes, including a floodlit trail down Reiterkogel.
Salzburg airport is around an hour and a half away from Saalbach, whilst Innsbruck sits around two and half hours away away.

Good, steady snowfall will come for much of Austria this week, although in a tale that has dogged the region for much of this season it will be limited to upper slopes because of an unfavourable freezing line during this period. It will sit between 1,500m and 2,000m for most of the rest of this week, with around 45cm of snowfall coming in this period – including 30cm on Wednesday alone.
This will being to drop as the week continues, with the 20cm of snowfall expected on Thursday and Friday beginning to hit lower slopes, too. It will dip below 1,000m across the region to welcome in the weekend, before dropping off a cliff on Sunday, when chances of sun will break through the last few flurries of snowfall.
Things remain cloudy and snowy into the new week, although it remains a bit too far out to see exactly what will happen.

I became a Ski Club rep in Dec 2023 having started skiing in 1983, enjoying Freshtracks holidays and learning to ski off-piste with Yann and Diane in Flaine. I am passionate about being in the mountains and have skied many resorts in France, Austria, Italy and Bulgaria. To heli ski in North America is still on my bucket list. When I am not skiing you will find me mountain biking, walking and playing on the sea.
I am excited about the season ahead and meeting and skiing with fellow members!
I discovered skiing unexpectedly at the age of 40, and it quickly became my passion, some might even call it an obsession. Since then, I’ve been making up for lost time by exploring many of Europe’s larger ski resorts, as well as some hidden gems, and have made several trips to the incredible Whistler. Over the last few winters, I’ve had the privilege of spending multiple weeks on the slopes, deepening my experience, honing my skills, and expanding my knowledge of the sport.
In December 2022, I completed the Ski Club of Great Britain Rep’s Course in Tignes, and since then, I’ve eagerly embraced the role of Ski Club Rep both in resorts and on Freshtracks Holidays. I can’t wait for the upcoming season, where I look forward to skiing with fellow Ski Club members and sharing my enthusiasm for this incredible sport!
I have been passionate about mountain sports for 35 years, have snowboarded for nearly 25 years and been a rep for the Ski Club since 2004. That has led me to skiing with other Ski Club members in the USA, Canada, Italy, France, Switzerland and Austria. I look forward to meeting new members and sharing the joy of the mountains.
