The cross-country skiing paradise of Saalfelden and Leogang

Cross-country in the winter sun

Cross-country skiers can enjoy the best possible conditions in both Pinzgauer towns which lie in the sunny and wide basin of the magical mountain ranges of the Salzburger Land.

An extensive cross-country course of over 80 kilometres, equipped with well-maintained double and skating tracks, thread their way through the varied landscape. This makes the Saalachtal cross-country network into a Mecca for cross-country skiers.

Silently gliding though nature, mostly in easy or moderately difficult terrain, is an unforgettable experience for young and old alike. And it makes every cross-country skiers heart beat a little faster!

More ambitious skiers or skaters can 'follow in the footsteps of world champions' and accept the sporting challenge of the world cup courses in Ritzensee or in the biathlon El Dorado of Hochfilzen. The connecting course in the neighbouring villages guarantee cross-country pleasure along the whole route. The total length of the central cross-country course is 150 kilometres.
Saalfelden has completely dedicated itself to cross-country skiing. Cross country pass, Cross country season tickets, snow refuges and cosy stop offs complete the cross-country facilities in and around Leogang. The best possible support is available from cross-country ski schools and service points as well as in sports shops and your cross-country friendly Hotel Salzburger Hof.
