March may be the best month for skiing: the days are long, the sun already has real warmth, and after the February half-term and carnival holidays the slopes are usually quieter. From Chalet Glemm Alpin it is a four-minute drive to the valley station of the Skicircus Saalbach-Hinterglemm-Leogang-Fieberbrunn – and in the afternoon you are back at the quiet end of the valley.
Why March?
- More daylight: by mid-March the days are more than three hours longer than at Christmas – more time on the slopes, without rushing.
- Sunshine skiing: firm pistes in the morning, soft spring snow from midday – and lunch breaks in the sun outside the mountain huts.
- More space: after the carnival holidays there are usually fewer guests in the valley and shorter queues at the lifts.
- Lower price: from mid-March the chalet’s spring rate applies.
€515 per night for the whole chalet (14 Mar – 11 Apr 2027)
around 30% less – €735 in high winter
with 8 guests and 7 nights around €70 per person per night – including final cleaning, plus tourist tax
A spring day from the chalet
- Morning: breakfast at the big table in the Stubn, and by nine you are on the lift.
- Midday: lunch at a mountain hut – in March often outside in the sun.
- Afternoon: when the snow gets soft, head back to the chalet: boots off, out onto the terrace with its mountain view.
- Evening: a fire in the fireplace, the tiled stove warming the Stubn, and all eight of you around one table.
Easter at the chalet
Easter 2027 falls on 28 March – right in the middle of the ski season. With four double bedrooms and two bathrooms, the chalet is ideal for two families or a group of friends sharing an Easter ski holiday.
