Saalbach has varied and well-maintained pistes, which is why families with children or beginners who have just decided to start skiing love to come here. Magnificent from this point of view, the “green” track No. 46 is the most attractive for beginners. It starts at an altitude of over 1700 m, and ends at Saalbach itself. For beginner riders and lovers of skiing, trails No. 19, 20 and 22 are also open - soft fluffy snow and gentle slopes make these slopes an excellent platform for learning. Skiers - "middle peasants" expect "blue" and more complex winding "red" trails with many jumps and sharp elevation changes. And for fans of extreme skiing and pros - "black" tracks. Offering skiing for all tastes, Saalbach is also known for its giant slalom slopes.

Professional instructors work here, teaching children from 3 years old and beginner adults. Elevation differences in Saalbach range from 1000 to 2000m. Due to the active sun, the skiing season here does not last as long as, say, in neighboring ski resorts, but, nevertheless, it passes brightly and gives an unforgettable experience. In addition to skiing, Saalbach offers tobogganing, tubing, ice skating. The Hinterglemm ice arena is also open here, as well as indoor tennis courts, bowling and curling.

Saalbach is also very attractive for girls "of marriageable age": in the third week of January, according to old traditions, the British military come here. It was at this time that the highest influx of single tourists from all over the world was recorded.
