Winter hiking and pleasure
Step by step
Want to swap your ski shoes for snow shoes? On the Schmitten there are countless winter hiking paths through the deeply snow-covered landscape. An elevation of up to 2000 metres rewards climbers of all ages with dreamy views. Three times a week there are guided hikes; things are much easier when you are part of a group. Those of you who get a pit peckish between meals can replenish your energy stores in one of the traditional Alpine inns.

The versatility of cross-country skiing
Not tried out those skis yet? Flat and easy entry-level circuits are suitable for beginners and bon vivants alike. The soft swoosh of your skis. The sound of your own breath. The gentle afternoon sunshine. These are the tranquil aspects of winter that often pass us by. Those among you who prefer things to be a little more sporty, will be in their element while skating. Your body pulsates and is taken to its limits. Irrespective of experience you will be delighted by one circuit that is especially popular - the floodlit night-time slope in Kaprun.
