About Saalbach-Hinterglemm
Saalbach-Hinterglemm is a ski resort in Austria’s largest ski area and one of Austria’s most beautiful alpine valleys. The two villages of Saalbach and Hinterglemm are about four kilometres from each other, with their outskirts almost touching along the valley floor. Saalbach is full of character, with traditional-style buildings arranged around a rather beautiful church and square. Hinterglemm has a bit less charm, arranged along one long street, but both have great access to the snow and lively après-ski. Some of the best places to stay in Saalbach-Hinterglemm are in Saalbach, and some are in Hinterglemm. But our Guru’s list includes both.
The skiable area of this resort, which runs on both sides of the valley, is also linked to Fieberbrunn, which is just to the north and Leogang to the east. You can also get to Zell am See on a gondola.
There’s no through traffic in either town and the lifts leave from quite close to the centre of town. Hinterglemm’s lifts offer quick access so some of the most interesting runs in the area, and to the north-facing runs, which have the better snow.
Summer is an equally popular time to visit Saalbach-Hinterglemm. There's more than 400km of hiking paths, many with breathtaking views, and around the same of biking trails, whether you're here for a gentle peddle round the countryside or you prefer the adrenalin rush of a steep downhill run. Some visitors simply come to soak up the mountain air and stunning surrounds.
If you're planning to visit during the peak periods including Christmas, New Year and February half term, the best places to stay in Saalbach-Hinterglemm will be booked months in advance. So either plan well ahead or come off season when the slopes will be much quieter.
