Grandma loves the views. Grandpa loves Kaiserschmarrn. Mum loves massages. Dad loves the summit. The kids love adventure.
And that is exactly why multi-generational holidays work so well in Saalbach.
Because here, nobody has to choose between family time and personal freedom.
Just imagine a perfect summer day:
The morning starts with a relaxed breakfast at eva,VILLAGE or eva,GARDEN. While the kids are already making plans for the day ahead, Grandma and Grandpa enjoy a second cup of coffee on the terrace. No rush. No schedules. No stress.
With the included JOKER CARD, everyone sets off to enjoy their perfect holiday day.
For Grandma and Grandpa, the adventure usually begins at a more leisurely pace. Modern cable cars take them comfortably to some of the region’s most beautiful viewpoints. Whether it’s Kohlmais, Schattberg or Westgipfel, the gondola ride itself becomes part of the experience. At the top, panoramic walking trails reveal breathtaking views of the Pinzgau mountains. Those who feel active can enjoy a gentle hike to a traditional mountain hut. Others simply find a sunny spot and savour the scenery with a traditional alpine snack or a delicious Kaiserschmarrn.
Grandpa might discover fascinating stories about the region, while Grandma is already planning the next family photo.
Meanwhile, Mum enjoys some well-deserved time for herself. After all, holidays are also about leaving everyday life behind. Perhaps the day begins with a yoga session in the mountains, followed by a soothing massage at eva,BEAUTY. A facial treatment, a little beauty escape or simply a few peaceful hours in the wellness area. No appointments. No obligations. Just time to relax.
Dad, on the other hand, has different plans.
Maybe he heads for a summit early in the morning. After all, Saalbach offers hundreds of kilometres of hiking trails, ranging from gentle panoramic walks to challenging mountain tours.
Or perhaps he grabs a mountain bike.
Saalbach is one of Europe’s most renowned biking destinations. Flow trails, spectacular lines and varied routes provide plenty of adrenaline and adventure. Thanks to the JOKER CARD, bike transport on selected cable cars is also included.
While Dad explores the trails, the kids set off on adventures of their own.
And there are plenty to choose from.
Take Montelino’s Adventure Trail on Kohlmais, for example. A fun themed trail packed with puzzles, play stations and exciting discoveries – perfect for young explorers.
Or Kodok Mountain on Reiterkogel, where children join the mischievous clown Kodok on an interactive treasure hunt through the mountains.
Another family favourite is Devil’s Water, offering water games, nature experiences and countless opportunities for exploration.
One of the highlights for the whole family is the Tree Top Trail and the famous Golden Gate Bridge of the Alps. Walking high above the forest floor, experiencing nature from a completely different perspective and sharing moments of wonder together – these are the memories that last a lifetime.
And if the kids still have energy left?
There are motor skills trails, playgrounds, family hikes, adventure stations and countless other attractions waiting throughout the region.
The best part? Many of these experiences are included or discounted with the JOKER CARD.
But no matter how differently everyone spends their day, eventually they all come together again.
Perhaps on a sunny mountain terrace.
Perhaps over lunch.
Perhaps while enjoying an ice cream in Saalbach.
Or later in the evening.
That is when many individual holiday experiences become one shared family story.
Grandma and Grandpa talk about their mountain discoveries. The kids proudly share their latest adventures. Dad shows off his summit photos. Mum simply enjoys the moment.
And by sunset, everyone is gathered around the same table at eva,ALM.
The sun slowly disappears behind the mountains.
A refreshing drink is waiting.
Perhaps live music is playing.
Perhaps everyone is laughing, making plans or simply enjoying the evening together.
That is what makes a multi-generational holiday so special.
It is not about doing everything together.
It is about creating shared memories while giving everyone the freedom to enjoy their own perfect moments.
And that is exactly why Saalbach is the perfect destination.
With mountains that bring people together.
With experiences for every generation.
With countless adventures right outside the hotel door.
And with eva,Hotels as a home away from home for the whole family.
Because the best holiday stories are always written together.
