Ski Resort Location

The end of the World War II marked the beginning of a ceaseless stream of skiing enthusiasts flocking to the Saalbach valley ever since. Located in the district of Zell am See, in the Austrian state of Salzburg, situated 4 km apart in the same valley, the villages of Saalbach and Hinterglemm decided to take on unifying marketing identity. While the villages haven’t merged physically, a ski-circus with multiple ski lifts and slopes serves as a connection.
