A summer holiday jam-packed with activities 

At Hotel Gabi, you’ve got countless options for spending an active summer holiday jam-packed with excitement. Holiday guests especially appreciate the fact that Salzburg’s nature starts right outside the hotel’s doorstep. Hiking, biking, swimming, paragliding … No matter what’s on your to-do list for a holiday in the mountains: You’ll be able to tick it off during a stay at Hotel Gabi!

Golfers, for instance, can look forward to a total of eight golf clubs that can be reached within only a few minutes by car from Wals. All these options make it hard for you to decide where to go first? Our team at reception will be happy to advise you.

Tip for adrenaline junkies: While paragliding on Gaisberg, you can enjoy a phenomenal view of the City of Salzburg and its surrounding mountains. Paragliding newbies can go on a tandem flight.

Hiking and biking in Salzburg’s surrounding regions

Especially in the summer months, the many hiking trails in the mountains of the Salzburger Land region have locals and holiday guests jumping for joy. The city alone offers four mountains to explore on foot: Kapuzinerberg, Mönchsberg, Untersberg and Gaisberg. No doubt – every avid hiker is bound to find the right tour!

Four-star Hotel Gabi is also the perfect starting point for hikes in the surrounding regions. We especially recommend the area around Filzmoos, which can be reached in about 50 minutes by car.

Where you can hike, you can usually also bike. How about a leisurely tour through the neighbouring Berchtesgadener Land region, for instance? Or a ride along Salzach river to Hallein? If you had to leave your beloved two-wheeled steed at home, you can borrow one for free at the hotel’s own bike rental. Alongside standard bikes, you can also choose from mountain bikes and e-bikes.

If you want to experience something extraordinary in winter, you should hit the slopes of the Salzburger Land region. Various ski resorts are only a stone’s throw from Hotel Gabi. Perfect for slipping on your ski suit right after a healthy breakfast and discovering the most beautiful winter sports regions! Skiing, cross-country skiing, freeriding, tobogganing, ice skating, … It can be a tough decision when options abound.
