TRENDS IN SAALBACH
"Graveln" more lifestyle than discipline
The gravel bike is used more and more to combine the best of two worlds: On the one hand, maneuverability and fast progress with the gravel bike & the mountains and hills as a stage for this lifestyle. Gravel biking is all the rage and is winning more and more bikers' hearts every year.
Electrified fans - the eMTB is booming!
The e-bike has not been frowned upon for a long time, but is becoming increasingly popular. More range, more vertical meters & thus discover corners in Saalbach that you have never seen before. Mega right? This is why Saalbach has also opted for the further expansion of charging stations in the mountains, because the e-bike has come to stay.
Forest wellness - the trend back to nature and peace
The forest wellness area on the Reiterkogel in Saalbach Hinterglemm offers peace, relaxation, rest areas and pure nature at 1,700m above sea level. Breathe in & breathe out and just feel how much we need nature and how it is good for us with every breath.
You don't need the treadmill on holiday in Saalbach - this is also proven by the new trail running map on saalbach.com.
Here, too, Saalbach is ideal for beginners and professionals - because there are a wide variety of trail running routes according to altitude and length. A tip: The “Saalachtaler Höhenweg” is ideal for really enjoying the panorama while running over the peaks. The good thing - depending on your mood, you can extend or shorten the route here just as you like!
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! - With the real incentive for special vacation experiences.
Incentive for the little ones & adventurers: "Kids Wander Challenge"
In order to infect even the youngest with the love of the mountains and the discovery mode, there is also this year the “Kids Wander Challenge”. You have to explore the tree top path, the motor skills path, the hiking trail, the fairy tale forest and the Schattberg summit & afterwards you can pick up a well-deserved reward from the Saalbach tourist office
News for all alpinists and mountain lovers - there is now a challenge for you too!
Off to new challenges! Three long-distance hiking trails, 64 kilometers and 3,800 meters in altitude - you want to do that? Then you are part of the "Wander Challenge"! A challenge not for everyone - because it takes experience and surefootedness to walk the "Seven Summits" and the "Home of Lässig Walk".
