One of the most infamous bars is Hinethag Alm where the party starts and continues down into town to Bauer’s Schi-Alm, an old cow shed with attached umbrella bars. The uniquely renovated medieval jail that is now Zum Turm is an interesting place to have a drink after a long day. The nightlife is much quieter in Hinterglemm but Hinterhag is a fun, goat-themed bar that is a great place to enjoy a drink off the mountain.

For those that aren’t looking to go skiing there are plenty of beautiful walks to be had. Both of the villages are also perfect for exploring and there is the opportunity to go on toboggan runs and day trips to Salzburg.
