Winter in the Alps, holidays in the Salzburg region

Where winter is still winter

2,000 fantastic kilometres of slopes and just as many cross-country trails, state-of-the-art lifts, rustic ski huts, cool events and an impressive natural backdrop: all this adds up to the perfect winter holiday in SalzburgerLand. Here, where the stars of alpine winter sports – Marcel Hirscher and Anna Veith – call home, winter and snow lovers, expert skiers, freeriders and snowboarders will find perfect conditions for the best time of the year.

Snow-capped peaks and crystal-clear nights, cosy parlours and the scent of wood fires, mystical torchlight walks and lively après-ski: this is how people know and love the SalzburgerLand in winter. It is the warm hospitality and the blend of tradition and modernity that people from all over the world appreciate. But also the high level of expertise of the hosts: here you’ll find some of Europe’s most modern wellness hotels. And the Salzburg Super Ski Card – the world’s largest ski pass network – covers 25 ski regions with 2,790 kilometres of slopes.
