About Saalbach-Hinterglemm
Saalbach-Hinterglemm is two villages about 2 km apart in one long valley, at roughly 1,000 and 1,100 metres. Saalbach, the former municipal centre, has most of the bars and discos, and Hinterglemm, higher up, is quieter. The valley road climbs about 15 km from Maishofen to reach them. The homes are scattered around the area over several kilometres rather than in one cluster. The lifts join the Skicircus with Leogang and Fieberbrunn in Tirol. Winter is the main season, with a free ski bus on the valley road for pass holders. Summer is about hiking trails, mountain bikes and Postbus services up the valley.
