Your autumn holiday with children.

Autumn holiday in Austria.

When the days start to get shorter again and the first veils of mist begin to cover the valley in the morning, then the perfect time for an autumn holiday in Austria has arrived.

Nature turns colourful, the autumn forests shimmer in all colours, the light is warm and soft - and the mountain slopes of the Glemmtal draw everyone's attention. On the one hand, it is a time to relax and recharge your batteries in preparation for winter. But it is also a time when you can perhaps get a few steps ahead of winter by making your first turns on the pistes during autumn glacier skiing.

The family autumn in Austria.

Autumn holidays with children at the Bachgut.

Families with children are practically at the destination of their holiday dreams at the Bachgut. Because the leisure activities on offer are almost limitless, both at the resort and in the surrounding Glemmtal valley. While the playground, water playground, football pitch, beach volleyball court, outdoor fitness course and much more vie for attention on the golden autumn days at the Bachgut Resort, the benefits of the Joker Card with free use of the open mountain lifts etc. also last until mid-October. Exciting and thrilling family programmes are offered, for example, by the forest nature trail at the head of the valley, Mount Kodok with Montelino's adventure playground and the hunt for the evil goblin who stole the clown's hat, and Schnitza's wood park with its great wooden play stations that give kids & co. a new connection to nature. Geocaching is also an option, as is a walk along the unique tree-top trail.

Außerdem ist der Herbst die schönste Jahreszeit für entspannte Wanderungen. 400 km an markierten Wanderwegen laden zu kleinen und großen Touren ein. Außerdem wartet auf Kletterfreunde der größte Hochseilpark Europas mit über 8 km Länge. Weiter geht es mit dem Slackline Parcours an der Mittelstation der Zwölferkogelbahn über den Minigolfplatz in Saalbach Hinterglemm und den Themenpark Teufelswasser im Talschluss.

Autumn hikes.

Hiking in Saalbach Hinterglemm is particularly colourful and varied in autumn. Depending on their mood, families can opt for a short tour or a challenging all-day summit conquest. Particularly ambitious mountain enthusiasts decide to take on the Saalbach Hiking Challenge with three long-distance hiking trails, 64 kilometres of hiking and 3800 metres of altitude. The Home of Lässig Walk, a breathtaking circular tour above the head of the valley, is also an option. Just like the Seven Summits, which rewards you with 7 summit victories at the end.

Biking in autumn.

Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn is the largest biking region in Austria. On the one hand because of the 80 kilometres of trails and lines, on the other hand because of the extensive network of tours and trails with varied mountain bike routes in all levels of difficulty. Recommended highlights for bike freaks are the Hacklberg Trail in Saalbach or the World Championship trail in the Epic Bikepark Leogang.

Glacier skiing in autumn.

If winter can't come quickly enough, the Kitzsteinhorn glacier ski area offers the motto "start instead of wait". The ski area in the eternal ice with its 23 modern cable cars and 61 kilometres of pistes at lofty heights up to 3000 m above sea level opens its lifts as early as October. With the Super Ski Card, the ticket is included not only on the Schmittenhöhe and the Skicircus but also on the Kitzsteinhorn! There are also five freeride routes, three snow parks and 100% guaranteed snow from October onwards.
