Hiking boots, sunrise, breakfast magic - holiday as it should be

A summer morning in Saalbach starts differently than anywhere else. Here, where the mountains are not just a backdrop but a place of adventure, the most beautiful part of the day often takes place before breakfast. It's worth getting up early - because if you set off on a sunrise hike in Saalbach, you'll be rewarded with a moment you'll never forget.

It's still dark in the valley, the streets are empty, the cable cars are asleep. Only the sky above the Glemmtal valley is beginning to take shape. We set off quietly - on foot or on the first shuttle to one of the surrounding peaks. The Saalkogel is a favourite spot for anyone looking for a special panorama. The Tristkogel and Spieleckkogel also offer fantastic vantage points.

As you approach the horizon with every step, you can feel the fresh mountain air fill with anticipation. The silence, the light, the first warm rays on your skin - all this makes this morning hike a very special part of your summer holiday in Saalbach Hinterglemm.

Whether alone, with your favourite person or with friends - the moment when the sun slowly rises over the mountain peaks and bathes the Glemmtal valley in golden light is unforgettable. It is precisely these genuine experiences that characterise summer in the mountains. And that's exactly why Saalbach is the perfect destination for anyone who wants more than just a hotel pool and breakfast buffet.

Speaking of breakfast: after the descent, the next highlight of your morning awaits at eva. On the terrace of the eva,VILLAGE, right in the centre of Saalbach, or surrounded by fragrant greenery in the eva,GARDEN, you can enjoy an extensive breakfast with a view. Crispy croissants, regional specialities, freshly squeezed juices and the best egg dishes far and wide - naturally from the eva kitchen,

But breakfast at eva is more than just a meal. It is a way of life. A welcome to the day. An arrival on holiday. And as you sit in the sun, the last fog lifts and life slowly awakens around you, you know: this is what summer feels like.

Saalbach offers countless opportunities to spend an active day. Numerous hiking trails, leisurely alpine routes and ambitious summit tours start directly from the hotel. If you fancy a change, the summer activities in Saalbach have everything to make your holiday heart beat faster: E-bike tours, via ferratas, panoramic trails, mountain lakes, forest playgrounds, trail running routes or guided nature tours - the choice is huge.

And because exercise makes you hungry, rustic mountain huts await you along the way with snacks, Kaiserschmarrn and cold refreshments. Many of these come from regional producers - sustainable, seasonal and honest. Just like the lifestyle at eva, in the heart of the Alps.

Back at the eva,VILLAGE or eva,GARDEN, you can organise the afternoon at your own pace. Perhaps with a little siesta in a deckchair, an aperitif on the terrace or a beauty break at eva,BEAUTY. This is also part of a summer holiday in Saalbach: the balance between being active and relaxing.

In the evening, another highlight awaits: the sunset. Whether with a view from the balcony of your room, a sundowner or a romantic dinner in the , the circle is complete. From sunrise to sunset, you were completely with yourself, completely in the moment.

This is exactly the feeling we want to give you at eva. We believe in real holidays. In unforgettable moments. In the power of nature, the glow of the mountains and the magic of a really good breakfast after a hike that you will never forget.

So if you are looking for a special summer holiday in the Austrian Alps, if you love the feeling of coming back tired but happy after a hike, if you are looking for mountains, pleasure, style and warmth - then eva is your place.

Whether it's a guided sunrise hike, a spontaneous summit assault or simply an extended breakfast on the terrace - we'll make your summer in Saalbach special. We promise.
