Lofer - Salzburger Saallachtal (626m - 1747m)

Lofer - Salzburger Saallachtal , Berchtesgadener, the Austrian Alps The slopes of Loferer Alm with the adjacent towns of Lofer, St. Martin and Weissbach in the Saalachtal valley do not stand for an outsized ski resort. Nevertheless, it is a neatly planned resort that takes advantage of home atmosphere, moderate prices and magnificent scenery. A pedestrian precinct in Lofer attracts people to stroll in the center and admire local specialties in the many shop windows. A winter vacation spent here does not mean only pursuit of ski results but also contributes to well-being of your body and mind. Together with a smaller Unken-Heutal resort, situated at the end of Saalachtal, it offers variety of extreme slopes, comfortably gentle slopes, snowboard Fun Park and about 80 km of cross-country trails zigzagging through the Valley. Despite its not very high altitude it takes pride in good snow conditions and various sport and aprés-ski activities. The most popular is a traditional Salzburg entertainment, so called Eisstockschiessen - an imitation of curling where ice cubes are used instead of granite stones.
