The Ski Resort
The Unken Heutal ski area belongs to the Saalachtal region in the Salzburger Land. The slopes are marked exclusively in blue and red and are suitable for beginners and re-starters as well as for experienced skiers and snowboarders. Three T-bar lifts and a rope lift are responsible for transporting guests.
The youngest ski beginners try the kids lift, which is located at the parking lot. Beginners, who are already confident of a longer distance, take the Wildalmlift 1 and try a blue marked downhill run, which leads back to the valley station.
Experienced skiers use the Wildalm lifts I, II and III to reach the highest point of the ski area. Downhill now on red marked slopes, the last section along the Wildalm lift 1 is marked blue.
