Saalbach Hinterglemm   I went skiing in Saalbach once in the late 80's so this review may be out of date. It's a great ski area, the snow is good. The lines were a bit on the long side down in the valley but maybe they fixed that since then. Many of the skiers seemed very irritaded and edgy, maybe due to the long lines? Or maybe just a cultural thing, I don't know. But the skiing was great, no complaints there. Says Bob. With a grand total of 200 ski trails to ski on; it's a splendid assortment. The 56 good ski lifts here are nicely     maintained and run by kind people. This ski resort has a much lower than average percentage of tough ski slopes and a much higher than average share of blue and green ski trails.
