Winter in SalzburgerLand
Perfectly presented pistes, modern ski lifts and gondolas, traditional ski huts, spa resorts to reenergize, along with the World Cultural Heritage City of Salzburg: A combination that makes SalzburgerLand a unique holiday region in the heart of the Alps.
For years, SalzburgerLand has been one of the world’s most acclaimed winter sports destinations. Winter Sports fans are greeted here by over 2,000 kilometres of beautifully maintained slopes along with around 550 state of-the-art gondolas and ski lifts. The region can also draw on their own snowmaking infrastructure if the snow doesn’t fall, covering the better part of 1700 kilometres of slopes.
Some of Austria’s most successful skiers have even come from Salzburgerland. Anna Fenninger and Marcel Hirscher are both current Olympic and overall World Cup Champions from the region. They join such ski legends as Hermann Maier and Michael Walchhofer, both of whom learned to ski there as well.
For the more adventurous skier the Salzburg Super Ski Card offers 22 ski regions on a single pass across the length and breadth of SalzburgerLand, including major neighbouring ski areas, for a grand total of over 2500 kilometres of pistes.
After a long day on the slopes, there are numerous spa resorts including two state-of-the-art wellness oases renowned for rest and relaxation experiences. The region also offers a choice of accommodation, including romantic log cabins right next to the slopes, to luxurious chalets, family-friendly farms and hotels with all the comforts you need.
The winner’s hotel is located in Obertauern, the highest skiing area in all of SalzburgerLand and also Austria’s snowiest winter sports destination with the greatest snow depths. |
