270km of well-groomed pistes make up the Skicircus,

a vast linked area created in 2015/16 following the construction of a new gondola to link Saalbach to neighbouring Fieberbrunn and Leogang.

This lift is one of an impressive number of new constructions at the resort, which has averaged a new lift a year for the past two decades. Indeed you will spend most of your ski day on high-spec, bubble chairlifts and gondolas – many of which also have heated seats.

Pros and cons

Huge ski area and incredibly varied terrain
Arguably the world’s best lift system
Lively resort with a great après ski scene

Lower slopes can suffer in warm spells and in the spring
Limited challenges away from the Fieberbrunn sector for experts
Two towns are spread out and accommodation can be a walk/bus ride away from the lifts

On the Slopes

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.

In the Resort

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.

Getting to Saalbach Hinterglemm

Salzburg airport is around an hour and a half away from Saalbach, whilst Innsbruck sits around two and half hours away away.

Salzburg airport: 1.5 hours (driving)
Innsbruck airport: 2.5 hours (driving)
Calais: approximately 13 hours driving (722 miles)

Snow Overview

Austria

Updated 02/05

The weekend starts mild across the region, with the freezing line ticking up to 4,000m. This sits under a layer of cloud cover, which will bring with it precipitation; this will fall as snow in many areas, as the freezing line drops from this peak as low as 1,500m over the course of the weekend.

Western areas will see around 12cm of snow, with easterly and southern areas seeing perhaps a foot on Monday along, with another 10cm before and after. This will remain across higher ground, as the freezing line doesn’t dip below 2,000m during this snowy period.

Unsettled conditions continue over the course of this week, with more snow on the way in parts.

Thus concludes our snow overviews for the 2024/25 season; thank you to everyone who has tuned in, and we look forward to seeing you again next season!

Pete Beck

Repping dates: 27/12/2025 - 10/01/2026

My first skiing trip was to St Anton at tender age of 22, which was a long time ago now. I caught the bug from the very beginning and I've not missed a season ever since. I just LOVE the mountains and have never had a bad day, just some better than others. This is my twelfth season leading/repping for the club, which has enabled to ski some great resorts where I’ve had some truly memorable moments and met some fantastic people along the journey. My favourite resort is Revelstoke in British Columbia with its legendary powder where my youngest daughter lived for six years and closely followed by Red Mountain where she lives now! Looking forward to starting the 25/26 season repping in Saalbach-Hinterglemm, then onto Bormio and back to Canada in March

Repping dates: 10/01/2026 - 24/01/2026

I’ve been skiing for 30 years or more, worked a season in Val d’Isère and Klosters - including a summer season. I’m returning to repping having first took the Reps’s course in 2004 and repped in Tignes the following 3 years. Challenging off-piste or social on-piste, I just love the environment and sharing the experience with others. Looking forward to skiing with you all.

Repping dates: 24/01/2026 - 07/02/2026

1st trip aged 11 with SCGB to Scotland....a few leisure trips in early 20's...fast forward to 1999 when rugby playing days ended...started trying to improve as a skier rather than ski simply to enjoy the après ski....lucky enough to have got through the rep's course in 2004 and since then have enjoyed many wonderful days on and off the slopes with fellow ski enthusiasts. Off piste, on piste and afterwards ... skiing ... love it. Chartered Surveyor, self employed.

Steve Leckie

Repping dates: 07/02/2026 - 21/02/2026

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!

Peter Knight

Repping dates: 21/02/2026 - 07/03/2026

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!

Damian Tow

Repping dates: 07/03/2026 - 21/03/2026

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.
