Salzburg Mountain Advent in the Großarltal
Salzburg Mountain Advent in the Großarltal 2026
The Salzburg Mountain Advent in the Großarltal stands for authenticity rather than fairground bustle: regional products, a balanced mix of craft and food, plus singers and musicians playing old Christmas carols. The highlights are the elaborately hand-crafted nativity trail and the extensive family programme. Horse-drawn carriages pass through the village and fires crackle on the market square.
