WE LIKE

  • Saalbach is a mid sized resort village, affluent and quite lively at night
  • Lifts and pistes are conveniently close to centres of both villages with some ski-in ski-out

  • Most slopes are low as well as sunny, and the snow suffers when temperatures rise
  • Limited steep terrain for real experts - also for 200km very few challenges period
  • Saalbach spreads along the valley - some lodgings are far from central
