3. Wine tasting with Roland
If you’d like to taste the numerous flavors of wines from certified sommelier Roland, the best way to do so is at a wine tasting with the chef himself.
Just ask at the reception!
4th apres-ski party
What should not be missing on a ski holiday? A hearty apres-ski party! Every Thursday evening in our hotel the famous garage festival is on the agenda. Glühwein, music, Maroni, Alpenburger and exuberant atmosphere await you! If you want to get a taste of après-ski air at lunchtime, the best place to do so is in one of our favorite huts for a refreshment stop.
5. Enjoy the sun at noon on the hut
We stay at the most beautiful huts in the region. Because of course we understand this: If you only have one week a year to ski, you have to make the most of it. Nevertheless, you should also take a break and enjoy the wonderful weather. Let yourself shine for a while at lunch the sun on your nose and enjoy the moment!
6. Try new things
Whether ski touring, cross-country skiing, paragliding or snowtubing. Anyone who experiences new things on holiday has a lot to tell at home. The Saalbach Hinterglemm region offers numerous opportunities to make the time varied.
Just ask at the reception!
7. Time for relaxation
Switch off, leave everyday life behind and allow the muscles time to regenerate. Relaxation must not be neglected! How about a soothing foot massage, for example?
8. Walking to a hut and tobogganing
Last time you sat on a toboggan as a child? Then you should definitely repeat this fun! Hike to one of the numerous huts in Saalbach Hinterglemm and ride a toboggan into the valley. This is not only fun for small holidaymakers!
Our tip: The Reiterkogel toboggan run. Equipped with tobogganing (available at the valley station) it goes up to the Wieseralm and the illuminated toboggan run down.
9. Floodlight skiing
“Because Skifoan is des Leiwondste” – at any time of the day. That’s why you should definitely take your turns on a floodlight runway!

10. Alternative program for lacklustre kids: Golden Gate & Tree Zip Path
If the little ones don’t fancy a day of skiing, the region offers a colourful alternative program. For example, the Golden Gate Bridge of the Alps and the Baumzipfelweg, both of which are also wonderful hikes in winter. Both the Baumzipfelweg – incidentally the highest treetop hike in Europe – and the Golden Gate Bridge of the Alps are located at the head of the valley in Saalbach Hinterglemm.
As you can see: The possibilities for spending your winter holiday in Saalbach Hinterglemm are endless!
We wish you a magical winter holiday with us at Barbarahof :-)
