Autumn without a break
While many regions experience a quiet off-season in November, Saalfelden Leogang stays in motion: the Leogang mountain lifts remain continuously open for hikers until the start of the ski season, allowing tours and relaxation in the mountains even in late autumn. This offering is complemented by special wellness programs from several of the region’s award-winning spa resorts.
Experience the colorful season in its most beautiful form and use an autumn holiday as an immune booster and a source of new energy. In Saalfelden Leogang, this is possible, as the Pinzgau region keeps its tourist highlights running well into autumn. The Leogang lifts operate daily without interruption until the ski season begins. The restaurants at the Asitz mountain station also welcome guests without closing days, serving regional specialties with panoramic views. This makes it possible to enjoy hiking trails, alpine circuits, and the themed trail “Forest Bathing on the Asitz” even in late autumn. The program is further enhanced by guided mindfulness days, culinary e-bike tours, and the Epic Bikepark Leogang, which remains open until November 9. At the same time, five premium hotels in the region offer retreats focusing on health, regeneration, and culinary enjoyment.
Five premium hotels with November programs
The five-star Hotel Krallerhof in Leogang focuses on the concept of “Regeneration & Longevity” – two major trends of our time. Treatments include IHHT oxygen training, red light therapy, and cryotherapy. A special highlight is swimming in the hotel’s natural bathing lake, even in the cooler autumn months. Guests of the PRIESTEREGG Premium Eco Resort stay in chalets with private spa areas. A new feature is PRIESTEREGG Ballooning: a 90-minute ride in the resort’s own hot air balloon, offering views of the autumnal mountain landscape. The four-star superior Hotel Ritzenhof – Hotel & Spa am See in Saalfelden offers an ice-bathing retreat with Dr. Josephine Worseck from November 6 to 9, 2025. At 1,050 meters above sea level, the four-star superior timber hotel Forsthofalm in Leogang combines ecological architecture with modern comfort. Meanwhile, at the four-star superior Hotel Gut Brandlhof in Saalfelden, guests can relax in the footsteps of football stars in the 3,000 m² wellness area. The resort also features a golf course and seminar facilities.
Sustainability and culinary highlights
The region also impresses year-round with its culinary offerings. With 17 Gault&Millau toques across seven establishments and two Guide MICHELIN-listed addresses, Saalfelden Leogang is regarded as a gourmet destination.
As a bearer of the Austrian Ecolabel, the region further emphasizes its commitment to sustainability – from resource-efficient hotels to climate-friendly rail travel. With the free Saalfelden Leogang Card, visitors can enjoy two daily rides on the Leogang lifts until the start of the ski season. “November is much more than just a transitional period – it is an invitation to recharge. Health, closeness to nature, and enjoyment are at the heart of this special autumn offering and underline our positioning as a year-round destination,” says Marco Pointner, Managing Director of Saalfelden Leogang Touristik.
