Salzburgerland – a ski destination in Austria

Austria’s most popular destination for ski holidays, Salzburgerland, has 1,700 magnificent kilometers of ski runs to offer. Nearly 400 mountain huts amid breathtaking winter landscapes and powder-covered slopes delight ski holidaymakers every year.

A taste of this winter landscape has been brought to Rathausplatz in Vienna. The romantic setting soon puts you in the mood for a ski holiday. You can feel the mountain world’s rustic charm at the Stiegl-Alm, built from beams that are 300 years old. The nostalgic atmosphere is the perfect setting to savor Salzburg’s culinary delights. The mulled wine igloo promises something original.

Salzburgerland’s ski holiday regions provide information about ski areas and the latest attractions. Visitors are also encouraged to join in. You can skate laps on cross-country trails or borrow snowshoes and skis at the test center before heading to the slopes. Cross-country skiing enthusiasts can get tips directly from Olympic champion Felix Gottwald.

The youngest visitors will love rushing to the children’s carousel. And it’s not just teenagers who will be thrilled by the spectacular freestyle shows on snowboards and skis.
