Everything you want to know about Saalbach.
Thanks to its cozy and casual atmosphere, Saalbach has been a very popular winter sports destination for many years. The beautiful village is located at the foot of the Glemmtal. The three separate ski areas of Saalbach, Hinterglemm and Leogang have recently been merged into a large area of no less than 270 km. The perfectly groomed slopes make Skicircus Saalbach-Hinterglemm one of the nicest ski areas. 
Even in the evening, you can enjoy yourself in Saalbach, thanks to a number of floodlit slopes and Fun Parks around Hinterglemm. The Ski Circus ski area also lives up to its name when it comes to après-ski possibilities, especially during Dutchweek Saalbach. “Long slopes and short nights” is a popular saying in Saalbach and we can only attest to this.
Dutchweek Kick-Off in January is no less than 4 days. You decide whether you come all 4 days or a few days. During Dutchweek Kick-Off Saalbach we will give “festival in the snow” a completely new definition. We are working on a program that will keep you moving for 4 days!
