PRLog -- This winter sees changes to the classic Austrian ski holiday, with reassuring continuity: SalzburgerLand's Alpine resorts remain as diverse, beautiful and welcoming as ever. Subject to snow conditions the 22 primary resorts open late December to Easter (high resorts stay open to May) and are easy to reach via Salzburg or Munich airports www.salzburgerland.com
With safety paramount, in-resort measures extend Government directives (https://www.salzburgerland.com/
