Down-to-earth, traditional, honest and cosy: this is how Advent presents itself in Saalfelden Leogang.
Guests and locals enjoy the pre-Christmas period with old customs, new craftsmanship and traditional home cooking.
In the weeks leading up to Christmas, shopping streets and Christmas markets become popular crowd-pullers. However, long queues, loud music and overloaded decorations spoil the contemplative and peaceful time of Advent for many visitors. At Saalfelden Leogang, guests and visitors alike appreciate the tranquillity and down-to-earth contemplation. The romantically decorated stalls of the Christmas markets tempt you to linger and savour the delights. Taste the first home-made biscuits, buy Christmas presents from local craft businesses or savour delicious punch, bread and chestnuts. Highlights such as the Miners' Advent in the show mine, a prayer service at the hermitage, Perchten runs and Christmas markets make the pre-Christmas period something very special!
