*For Ski Holidays in Salzburg, nothing best than Salzburger Hof Leogang

MUMBAI, 31 OCTOBER, 2019 (GPN):   Salzburger Hof Leogang has all the ideal ingredients for a winter getaway

After a day on the Austrian slopes, nothing beats skiing right back to your hotel, perhaps sinking into the hot tub, enjoying a spa treatment, then treating yourself to a sumptuous four-course dinner.

When we book ski holidays, we tend to think about the crisp snow, soaring peaks and miles of sunny pistes. But all those extras, from a great ski-in-ski-out location to a well-stocked wine cellar and expansive spa, are the differences that can really make the trip.

When you stay at Salzburger Hof Leogang you get the whole package. You’re just steps from the Asitz cable car, which whisks you to Austria’s second-largest ski area. And this winter, 2019/2020, your ski ticket is valid for 408km (254 miles) of slopes, including Zell am See and Kaprun-Kitzsteinhorn. Then at the end of each day you are welcomed back to a sumptuous hotel where you can truly relax and enjoy time with friends or family.

The hotel experience
Perfectly located so you can discover the whole Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn ski area, the delightful Salzburger Hof Leogang hotel offers a week’s skiing, with ski pass included, from just €1,167 per person (£1,007pp) on a half-board basis.

Not only will you enjoy breakfast and an afternoon snack buffet, but a four-course dinner as well, along with all the hotel’s amazing facilities, from its two wellness areas, outdoor pool and sauna with a mountain view to the climbing wall incorporated into the exterior of hotel building. Don’t miss the packed programme of extra activities either. With yoga classes, snowshoe hikes and guided skiing, there is something for everyone.

A culinary delight
From the locally sourced ingredients on the menu to the wine cellar packed with more than 150 different vintages, the indulgent afternoon snacks to the wellness-inspired dishes featuring high-protein and low-carb options, you’ll never go hungry at Salzburger Hof Leogang.

Whether you are looking for a hearty or a healthy breakfast, you’ll find it all at the buffet, while the afternoon snack includes everything from warming soups to decadent cakes, perfect for when you return from the slopes and need some sustenance.

Before dinner, make sure you head to the PLATZL Bar for an aperitif, where you can choose from more than 100 different cocktails.

Your evening meal will always include a regional choice as well as carefully balanced meals for the nutrition-conscious, all topped with fresh herbs from the hotel’s own garden. Accompany your meals with one of the wines from the impressive cellar, the pride of hotel host Anton Hörl.

Active adventures
Whether the slopes are calling or you fancy trying something a little different on your holiday, Salzburger Hof Leogang offers a whole range of different activities.

Head out and explore the mountains with ski guide Stefan, or perhaps join him to explore the pristine scenery on a snowshoe hike. There are morning fitness classes, aqua aerobics and even evening foam roller sessions to ease those aching muscles.

If you want to take things at a more leisurely pace, join one of the easy skiing days with Stefan, or head out for an evening at the natural ice-skating rink.

Soak in the spa
With not one but two wellness areas, the Salzburger Hof Leogang envelops you in a world of relaxation when you return from the slopes.

Between the two, you have a choice of seven saunas, a steam bath, a heated outdoor pool and an indoor hot tub. Try the outdoor sauna with its beautiful mountain views, or the infrared option – it is cooler than the traditional sauna but with the heat targeted to penetrate the body more deeply.

The fifth-floor spa area is for adults only and has a relaxation area where you can enjoy soothing mountain vistas, while the garden wellness area welcomes families. ENDS
