Advent in the Alps of Salzburg

Traditional Christmas markets await you in the Hochkönig region

Every year again...

The air is filled with the delightful scent of cinnamon and gingerbread, Christmas melodies echo through the snow-covered streets, and lights and candles shine as far as the eye can see – during Advent in the Hochkönig region, guests experience the pre-Christmas season in its most authentic and enchanting form. Every year in the run-up to Christmas, you’ll find everything that makes the season so special: from a traditional Advent market with mulled wine, cookies, and handicrafts to alphorn and folk music performances, workshops and exhibitions at the House of Encounter, concerts in the churches, and even romantic horse-drawn carriage rides and torch-lit walks through the snowy villages.
