Saalbach is an attractive and traditional village set around a classic onion-domed church, whilst Hinterglemm is spread along one main street. They are 2 separate villages, 4km apart, but both are traffic free and have a lively après scene that continues into the evening. In fact, the resort claims to have the ‘best après ski in the Alps’ and with over 20 venues you will need more than a week to sample them all.

Leogang is the more upmarket resort within the Ski Circus, host to several luxury 5* hotels, beautiful chalets and some superb restaurants. Uplift from the resort is by 2 gondolas and runs back into resort are all north facing and on pasture, giving you a delightful ski home.

As well as being one of the best linked ski areas in Austria, you can upgrade your lift pass to the “Alpin Card” which gives you access to 408km of slopes and includes the Kitzsteinhorn glacier. With skiing up to 2,000m, the Ski Circus also has ski cannon covering 90% of the runs, allowing skiing from early December until after Easter

This is an intermediate skiers paradise, and the resort has created 5 routes around the mountains to showcase the extent of the ski domain. The longest traverses 68 km and 12,000 metres in altitude, and if you include short breaks, we are talking about a whole day tour, which is probably the longest of its kind in the Alps. With more than 60 cosy ski huts, numerous snow parks, freeriding parks, floodlight slopes and toboggan runs, the region is one of the most diverse ski areas in the Alps.
