About Saalbach-Hinterglemm
The neighbouring villages of Saalbach and Hinterglemm have always been PGL’s most popular Austrian destination. A superb lift system covers both sides of the Glemm Valley, it can be skied in either direction with the added bonus of a free shuttle bus operating during the day along the Saalbach - Hinterglemm road. The area also boasts some of the most reliable snow conditions in the country.
270 of well groomed pistes make up the Skicircus, which is a big linked area created in 2015/16 following the construction of a new goldola to link Saalbach, Fieberbrunn and Leogang. They have invested heavily in the new ski area, averaging a new lift every year for the past two decades.
Saalbach Hinterglemm and Zell am See-Kaprun will be under one lift pass, meaning you have the opportunity to ski two fantastic Austrian resorts during your trip!
