You don't ski? Or you would like
to spend a day away from the slopes? Give yourself a treat and
go on a wintry hike; savor tranquility!
The
forests covered with virgin snow, hours on the summits
with their spectacular views, cozy huts and white mountain pastures
will let you experience unforgettable moments. This
is a wonderful alternative to skiing for families with children.
For those who would like more
peace and quiet in winter, but still would like to be
active in sports, cross-country
skiing is the perfect alternative. Enjoy nature at its
best, untouched and romantic
as you take in the beautiful surroundings.
You will remember the wintry impressions of snow-covered nature
for a long time, just like the positive impact cross-country
skiing has on your health. No
other sport boosts stamina, strengthens body and circulation
in such an encompassing way, but is still gentle, especially
in the healthy mountain climate. The
Meransen cross-country slope will take you through the
pristine and wildly romantic landscape
of the Altfass Valley.
Covering
12 km and with a difference
in elevation of 150 m, as well as a difficulty level varying
from easy to moderately difficult, it is THE
cross-country run for lovers of tranquility and peace.
In the Pfunderer Mountains,
around the Gitschberg and
Jochtal, as well as on
the Rodenecker Alp, snowshoe hiking
is gaining more and more followers.
Recommendable are the half-day hikes in quiet, relatively secluded
areas. Information can be obtained upon request or respectively
from the Chamber
of Tourism Gitschberg-Jochtal.
