Saalbach-Hinterglemm sits at the centre of the Skicircus, a 270 km lift-linked ski area in the Pinzgau valley of Salzburg, with onward connections to Leogang and Fieberbrunn (which crosses the regional border into Tyrol). 70 lifts run from 1,003 m at the valley floor to 2,096 m at the Schattberg. Terrain is overwhelmingly intermediate, much of it tree-lined and sheltered. The area is famous for its cruising mileage rather than challenge. The branding is loud and après-leaning; family options exist on the Leogang side.
