    Flachau: the gene of the winner types

    Flachau in Snow Space Salzburg has the winning gene. And for two reasons: On the one hand, the annual Audi FIS Ski World Cup Ladies Night Slalom takes place in Flachau. And second comes the "Herminator" Hermann Maier - one of the most successful ski racers in history - from just this place.

    But that's not all: the entire ski resort is highly prized. An award that stands out in particular is the choice for the "best ski resort in the Alps".

    Wagrain: go on an expedition

    From Wagrain in the Snow Space Salzburg, skiers from all over the world are on a journey of discovery. Because Wagrain not only connects the two mountains Grießenkareck and Grafenberg with the G-LINK Wagrain - one of the largest aerial tramways in the world. And thus the entire Snow Space Salzburg.

    The ski and winter sports facilities are also among the special highlights in the Snow Space Salzburg. Perfectly groomed slopes, cozy huts, exciting special slopes and attractions for children as well as events inspire national and international guests year after year.

    St. Johann: the entry into pure pleasure

    St. Johann-Alpendorf is the first entrance to the ski area Snow Space Salzburg.

    With mostly blue and red pistes and family specials, St. Johann-Alpendorf is perfect for families and returnees. Freestylers will find their personal slope highlight in the Snowpark Alpendorf.
