Would you like to take a relaxing walk and find peace and quiet? Or do you need a little more adventure and effort for your winter hike? In the Wildkogel Arena and in the Hohe Tauern National Park you will find numerous prepared winter hiking trails that invite you to go for a walk or a winter hike.
Whether metre by metre or km by km, there is something for everyone. Alone, as a couple or with the whole family – we are guaranteed to find the right winter hike for you.
With or without snowshoes, we leisurely leave the first km behind and hike on idyllic winter hiking trails towards the sun. Our hike leads us through snow-covered forests, past huts, glittering icicles and frozen mountain streams deeper and deeper into the untouched winter landscape.
The snow crunches softly underfoot, the snow crystals sparkle in the light of the sun and the clear winter air erases the last thoughts of everyday life from our minds. We wander through the magical winter landscape and enjoy the tracks in the snow. The small things along the way come more and more into focus, the tour becomes easier with every km and the heart beats in harmony with nature. We let ourselves fall, spread our arms and paint the first snow angel in the powdery snow.
We are sure: If you like hiking in summer, you are definitely at the right address in winter as well.
