SAFE SKIING

Our measures for your perfect day of skiing

In SalzburgerLand, the winter season 2021/22 will happen within a safe framework. An extensive hygiene concept and clear rules are a matter of course in the ski resorts in SalzburgerLand.

Are the ski resorts in SalzburgerLand currently open?

The ski resorts in SalzburgerLand are open as planned (please note the currently valid entry regulations for Austria. More on this in the topic >> Safe Arrival). We recommend that you check if your desired ski area is operating before you travel.

What measures and precautions have been taken by the ski resorts in SalzburgerLand for this winter season?

The national government has presented safety measures to ensure safe skiing for our guests during the winter season.

2G regulation when skiing.

  • For the use of gondolas and ski lifts, a valid 2G proof (vaccinated or recovered) must be presented. Please note that rapid antigen tests and PCR tests are no longer accepted.
  • Ski tickets (one-day or multi-day tickets) will be available according to the 2G proof rule.
  • A FFP2 mask must be worn in the gondolas and ski lifts
  • Compared to last year, there are no capacity limits or distance regulations for gondolas and lifts

The Covid Board SalzburgerLand has developed a hygiene concept and clear guidelines for the already past winter season together with the winter sports regions and cable car operators in SalzburgerLand to ensure safe skiing  for our guests. Measures for last year’s hygiene concept, which may also be taken into account this year, are as follows:

  • Closed lifts (such as gondolas) are ventilated as well as possible during the ride
  • Disinfection facilities are provided in the toilet facilities as well as at neuralgic points throughout the ski area

Can I use ski buses and other public transport? How is health taken care of there?

Ski buses also operate this winter in the ski resorts in SalzburgerLand. In many winter sports regions, buses run at increased intervals in order to keep passenger numbers as low as possible and to bring you safely to your destination.

Ski buses have the same rules as other public transport. To protect the health of you and other passengers, please note:

  • In all public transport and in the waiting area of train and bus stations, a FFP2 mask must be worn
  • Use public transport only if you feel healthy
  • Where possible, buy tickets online, at the hotel or at a ticket machine
