Hinterglemm Piste Map and Overview
Hinterglemm is directly attached to Saalbach and provides the main connecting ski link through to the off piste haven of Fieberbrunn. Hinterglemm is a more upscale, family friendly town compared to Saalbach – with the added bonus of hosting night skiing including a small beginner’s park several times per week! In our experience, the Hinterglemm slopes are less crowded than Saalbach – and more spread out allowing for lots of side hits and fresh powder – if you know where to look. The perfect Hinterglemm ski day involves finding the “secret lift”, take a look at the map – it’s on there, night skiing the park – and then dancing the night away at the wild “Goat bar”. Bonus points if you have enough energy left to go on the night sleigh run!
