Saalbach Piste Map and Overview
Saalbach is part of a much larger ski area known as the “SkiCircus”. This connects Saalbach to Hinterglemm, Leogang and Fieberbrunn – with a somewhat new connection to Zell Am See (Via a quick 5 minute bus ride at the bottom of a gondola). It is almost impossible to provide a map of just Saalbach, as the whole area is so intertwined. You can easily ski from one ski area to the next – prooviding endless slopes for your next Winter trip. We spent a whole season here, an will be back for another soon. Saalbach is truly a special place.
Nestled in the Austrian Alps, the town itself is a picturesque haven with traditional Tyrolean architecture, lively après-ski venues, and a welcoming ambiance.
