Why this trip
Here the playground for children lies between ski circus and hiking trail: Saalbach in the Salzburg region belongs to a huge network of slopes that links Saalbach, Hinterglemm, Leogang and Fieberbrunn. For families that means many slopes of different difficulty. In winter beginners and advanced skiers ski on the same mountain, because lifts such as the Kohlmaisbahn and the Zwölferkogelbahn give access to different areas. The Schattberg X-press takes you up the Schattberg, from where you can reach further areas.
In summer the lifts are the starting point for hikes, and the Weißsee Gletscherwelt in Salzburgerland is a hiking and ski area for families who want an excursion to higher altitudes. The country data name May to October as the best time for summer holidays. Kitzbühel, Mayrhofen and Salzburg lie nearby as neighbours, and Hallstatt too is a destination from here for a quiet excursion. Which slopes or hiking trails suit your children's ages is something Swiss Vibes clarifies with you in a video call, before accommodation and lifts are chosen.
