In just 5 minutes, you’ll be at the Zell am See Xpress on the Schmittenhöhe, in 10 minutes at the Schönleitenbahn – the entry point to the Skicircus Saalbach. Ski-in to the front door? Even possible with natural snow.

Whether leisurely around Lake Zell or action-packed on the trails in Saalbach – the Pinzgau is made for biking. Freeride, Downhill, E-Bike, or family bike tour: Here, everyone finds the perfect trail, and the mountains become a playground on two wheels.
Right to Your Door – Snow Permitting
With good snow conditions, it gets especially convenient: You can then ski directly down natural snow slope No. 168 right to Hecherhof. The “Viehhofen Descent” is one of the longest and most beautiful in the entire Skicircus – a true highlight, even if it’s usually only open for a few weeks. From Viehhofen, you can then easily continue: either with the zellamseeXpress to Schmittenhöhe or with the free ski bus to Saalbach – and later return via the slope.
One ticket, three regions, endless possibilities: With the Alpin Card, you'll experience Schmittenhöhe, Kitzsteinhorn, and Skicircus Saalbach – all with just one ski pass.
Without a car, stress-free: The ski bus takes you for free through the entire Glemmtal. Just hop on, lean back, and ride directly to the lifts or back to Viehhofen.
Lots of space, true privacy, and the charm of an old farmhouse. Perfect for families or friends. Sauna with mountain views, each room with a bathroom – and the mountains right outside your door.
We are behind Hecherhof – the five-member Breitfuß family – Ramona and Stefan with our three children. As a nature-loving family, we live with all our heart at Hecherhof, our home amidst the mountains. With the holiday home, we want to share this special place with you: authentic, warm, and surrounded by nature. A place to arrive and feel at home – just as we love it most ourselves.
What a vacation. Quiet, sunny, good weather, and great hosts. We will definitely be back soon.
Skiing, Apres Ski, and then off to the sauna. Simply amazing.
Just amazing. The view. The old house with its new kitchen. It was a great stay.
