Hotel Thurnerhof Saalbach Hotel Pool Infinity Pool

Now and then there are rainy days in the summer too.

There are activities and excursion destinations in Salzburger Land for when the weather isn’t great - defying the unfavourable conditions - and these are very popular even when the sun is shining too.

Rainy day excursion destinations in Saalbach Hinterglemm

When in doubt just head to a lovely snug! The Home of Lässig has many an indoor highlight in store too. The following activities and excursion destinations put you in a great mood, whatever the weather:

  • Tennis: The tennis hall in Hinterglemm, not far from the Fairytale forest, provides the best court conditions throughout the year.
  • Open Gym: Fitness and health find their home from home in WERKSTATT. This fitness studio is a little bit different and is open daily, from early in the morning until late in the evening.
  • Jumping Fitness: Another somewhat different workout providing dedicated cardio training via specific jumps. Soft trampolines also accommodate people who have joint problems.
  • Bowling: In Bobby’s Pub all kinds of pub sports are on the agenda. The bowling lane is without a doubt among the absolute favourites, yet darts, pool and foosball have their place here too.
  • Local history museum: The museum in Saalbach and its affiliated ski museum is dedicated to the long, variety-packed history of the town and of the sport of skiing in the Skicircus.

  • Kaprun Museum: A farmhouse on the Kirchbichl that is around 400 years old has been carefully converted into a place to showcase local culture. Here it is all about agricultural life in days ling past, about the power station construction in the Hohe Tauern and ski sport.
  • Hohe Tauern National Park Centre: Ten experience stations in Mittersill help make this unique conservation area tangible. Visitors learn more about the habitat in the high mountains.
  • Salt mines: Hallein’s Dürrnberg was once one of the most important salt mining regions in Europe. A tour of the mine takes you through former sites. The Celtic Village, with its themed play area, has something for everyone.
  • Ramingstein silver mine: The 200 year old historic cave has many an adventure in store. Along with an experienced guide you head down into the silvery depths .
