Harmonious Adrenaline-filled Holidays

The Saalfelden Leogang region is ideal for those who cannot choose between adventure and relaxation. It is here where both combine, so that it is impossible to perceive where adventure ends and relaxation begins...

 “Depending on personal fitness, mood and the weather, one can tackle a steep cycle trail, go on a mountain hike or just take a leisurely walk along the valley and forest paths. Mountain biking enthusiasts will be ecstatic over the choice of trails of all difficulties and an ingenious bike park. Golfing fans will appreciate the diversity of the selection of 17 courses in the immediate vicinity and the fact that the Golf Alpin Card provides a discount on most of them,” Michal Madreiter, co-owner of the renowned Puradies Resort, specifies the main attractions of the region.

 Paradise for Tourists and Cyclists

Surrounded by Alpine peaks and extensive forests, the Saalfelden Leogang region is one of the most popular tourist destinations. It offers a variety of activities over 400 kilometres of mountain trails and paths. And for those interested, there are also many stimulating guided tours: Mystic Torchlight is a romantic hiking trail with plenty of breathtaking panoramas, with the trail beginning via historical mountain huts and including a free tour of a mountain village. And for those who want to learn more about the local healing flora, there is the Herb Walk through surrounding meadows, where herbs can be gathered, accompanied by a guide.

 “Hikers and cyclists will be ecstatic about the choice of cycle paths and trails. Every day, different routes can be explored to challenge their fitness. Ambitious mountain bikers can test their limits in the EPIC Bikepark Leogang. And there is no reason to worry about failure. The region is suitable for both beginners and experienced mountain bikers. The Antonius Trail and Steinberg Line, which lead from the peak through forests and contain many hair-raising bends, are unique,” says Michal Madreiter.

 According to Michal Madreiter, a special adrenaline tip is the flight up in the clouds: One boards a helicopter, flies above the resorts and finds oneself in the immediate vicinity of the steep walls and majestic rock formations of the Steinernes Meer and Leoganger Steinberge mountains.  Enjoying the vistas of azure lakes and discovering natural beauties will definitely take the breath away for a while...

 Peace in Paradise Regained

After all the adrenaline experiences, guests will appreciate the harmonious base of Leogang, a charming Alpine village surrounded by the Leoganger Steinberge mountain range. Originally, this was a very poor region, where people subsisted on agriculture and wood processing. However, Leogang has retained its traditions.

 “We need to go back to our roots, see the rays of the sun on the water, feel the smoothness of the treated wood, hear the silence. The purity of Nature is a paradise for a civilization-weary person,” Michal Madreiter summarises the philosophy of the entire region and the Puradies Resort.

 Cosy log cabins which can be rented are scattered above the Hotel like a village in a meadow. They are built in traditional style with an oven and canvas curtains, while simultaneously unobtrusively guaranteeing all modern conveniences. Each of the 14 cabins has a sauna and  infrared cabin. “Holiday cottagers” also have at their disposal the  “Innere Mitte” Badhaus (sauna house) of the wellness centre belonging to nearby Puradies design hotel. Guests can forget all their cares in one of the several saunas and steam baths, in the wood-scented relaxation rooms and during massages.

 Puradies Hotel will definitely satisfy guests who prefer the facilities of a cosy hotel with a homely atmosphere. It exudes the aroma of wood, herbs and homemade jam. The Hotel combines romantic Alpine traditions with modern design in a natural and sensitive way. It is the ideal place just for lazing and watching the clouds and mountain peaks through the glass walls, swimming in a natural lake and regaining one’s lost balance thanks to the natural beauties of the surrounding countryside…

 In addition, the harmony here will be sensed by the mind as well as by the body and especially by the stomach. “In our Hotel we cook from local ingredients produced on our own farm. It is so close that children can go in person to the hens to collect eggs for breakfast. In short, we profess the connection with Nature in all directions,” concludes Michal Madreiter.

Practical Advice:

Saalfelden Leogang Card: Every guest receives the Saalfelden Leogang Card as soon as checking in to one of the partner hotels. The card allows guests to use cable cars, entry to the Sonnrain theme park, the Obsmarkt adventure pools and the Ritzensee lake. It also entitles holders to travel by bus and train throughout the Pinzgau region free of charge until the end of October.

 Your dog can come with you!
