Record Breaking Season

Nestled in the Gelmmtal valley, Saalbach-Hinterglemm-Fieberbrunn Ski Circus is one of Europe’s largest ski areas. This year the resort has had record-breaking 1,593.595 overnight stays recorded. Therefore, this leading ski resort has just had one of its best seasons of all time! By joining with Fieberbrunn in 2015, Saalbach-Hinterglemm promised visitors 270km of varied ski pistes. This year however, the early onset of winter pushed overnight stays into a new realm. Skiers were able to enjoy snow until 8th April!
