Saalbach-Hinterglemm

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.

Since 2000, €432m has been invested by the lift companies to improve comfort and convenience. The all-new TirolS 10-seater gondola now connects Saalbach to the neighbouring resort of Fieberbrunn (a hidden treasure of a resort), linking the Salzburg and Tyrol regions.

A new 10-seater cable car with a capacity of 3200 guests per hour, replaces the old Schönleitenbahn in Saalbach. The 12er Express is a new 10-seater cable car which connects the Zwölferkogel and the lifts in the Westgipfel area. Last but not least, the Oberschwarzachlift has been reconstructed as a double-drag lift.

NEW for 2019/20

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!

Experts will find some steep and bumpy challenges, especially on the formidable Zwölfer run from the top of Hinterglemm at almost 2000 metres down to the bottom of the valley. Meanwhile, for beginners the nursery slopes are close to both village centres, with a range of good, easy runs higher up.
