Salzburg Ski Holidays & Packages

Salzburg Ski Holiday Packages

The snow-capped peaks of the Alps beckon with downhill action not far from the historic streets of Salzburg. With over 250 miles of pistes spread across three resorts, the Zell am See-Kaprun ski area is perfect for a Salzburg ski holiday. Start at Kitzsteinhorn/​Maiskogel – Kaprun Ski Resort, where you can have fun on the snow from October all the way through to late-spring. Featuring five freeride routes plus easy runs on the Maiskogel Family Mountain, you’ll find a slope to match all skill levels here. Saalbach-Hinterglemm is another popular destination for powder hounds, with almost 170 miles of pistes, snowtubing, tobogganing and more. It’s also known for its vibrant après-ski spots and buzzing nightlife, with top venues like Burgi’s Bar and Goasstall for you to find your party mode. Superb skiing and unrivalled views of the Alps and Lake Zell await at Schmittenhoehe Ski Resort. Get your blood pumping on the 2.5-mile-long Trass descent or watch the kids find their snow legs at the Dragon Park. Access to all three resorts is available with the Alpin Card, and prices start from 55 euros (around £47) for a single-day adult pass.

How To Get Around

Once you've touched down, pick up a hire car at Salzburg Airport (SZG) and make the short drive into the city centre. If skiing is at the top of your itinerary, it’ll take you about 80 minutes to journey by car to the town of Zell am See. Prefer to leave your wheels behind? A public bus service operates between the airport and Zell am See. From there you can reach the slopes on regional buses, which are free with a valid ski pass.

Salzburg Things to Do

No trip to Salzburg is complete without walking in the footsteps of the city’s most famous son, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Learn about the composer’s life at Mozart’s Birthplace and attend classical concerts at Mirabell Palace. Fortress Hohensalzburg is a must-see for views over the city’s fairytale-like rooftops and great shopping awaits on the historic streets of the Altstadt.
