Leogang is linked to the immense Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn, but it has a completely different atmosphere than its popular neighbouring villages. Leogang has managed to preserve its authenticity, with less of a focus on the après-ski culture. Leogang is located right under the imposing Leoganger Steinberge, just north of the Glemm Valley. Considered the quieter younger brother to Saalbach and Hinterglemm, Leogang nevertheless has its own advantages. There are fewer tourists here, and although there are several four-star hotels, in general it's easy to find budget-friendly accommodation.

From Leogang, the Steinbergbahn gives you access to the Kleine and Grote Asitz (1914m). The ski area has a varied range of slopes as well as a snow park, tobogganing and cross-country skiing trails. Children will feel at home in Leo's Kinderland, where there are a multitude of facilities to introduce them to the fun sport of skiing! In total, the Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn has more than 270km of slopes. This makes it possible to go on beautiful day trips, no matter what your skiing level. Leogang is an affordable and peaceful alternative to Saalbach and Hinterglemm.
