13window Posted October 21, 2007 Report Posted October 21, 2007 Anyone know if there's anywhere around the saalbach/hinterglemm area (austria) to snowkite?? Cheers. Quote
Gomas Posted October 22, 2007 Report Posted October 22, 2007 Went years ago, dunno about snowkiting, its all pretty mountainous so maybe not, the skiing/boarding runs are primo though, really long runs. insider knowledge: Bobbys Bar at the bottom of saalbach is where its at. Quote

strange al Posted October 26, 2007 Report Posted October 26, 2007 Hi Window. IMO Yes there is but only If you have good local knowlage/experience plus someone with you who REALLY understands kites and mountain craft. The reason I say this is because the area I have had in mind now for the past two years is quite high up the side of the hill. There is nowhere in the valley bottom that I know of to use. BTW you Wouldn't be planning on going there as part of a 'copmany' organised 'trip' between the 12th and 26th of january would you? Al PS The Alm Bar underneath the big hotel in Hinterglem Centre has always been open minded when it came to NOT playing appalling Ooopah drinking songs:rolleyes: Quote

Planning to go somwhere but not til march time. We're thinking about buying somewhere around saalbach and would be a big bonus if there is some decent snow kiting. We went snow kiting on the lake at zell am see before but you've got to wait for it to freeze!! Quote
