School ski trips to Austria's best known skiing area, Saalbach-Hinterglemm, deliver a great all round solution. Situated in the lovely Glemm Valley, Saalbach has a huge ski circuit. 200km of stunning terrain covers both sides of the lovely valley. Plus it has a great snow record and really good snow making facilities. The school ski courses are very good here. Saalbach is perfect for all grades of skier. There are plenty of blue and red runs and some nicely challenging black runs too. And if you start early enough, you'll be able to ski around the entire circus in a day, never using the same lift twice. Ski Saalbach for superb school ski trips!
