      St. Johann in Salzburg - Winter Holidays the Austrian Way

      Leave the stress of everyday life behind and enjoy quality time with your family and friends!

    Starting right in the alpine village of St. Johann, the Snow Space Salzburg ski area awaits with 210 km of perfectly groomed slopes. And the best part? Guests can "ski in ski out" right from their doorsteps!

    Enjoy skiing like back in the day at the Hahnbaum family area, where kids and beginners can master their first turns using the platter lift free of charge. For a well-deserved break, stop at one of the many cosy huts and warm up over a cup of hot chocolate or mulled wine with your favourite people. And if you are hungry, there's no better place to try all the local delicacies than on a sun terrace, amidst stunning mountain panoramas.

    The resort also has a lot to offer away from the slopes - from winter and snowshoe hikes to horse-drawn carriage rides, from a fast-paced toboggan run to a leisurely shopping stroll. St. Johann in Salzburg unites the best of both city vibe and mountain lifestyle.
