Snow Shoeing
A winter sports activity in which you can enjoy being right up close to nature. You hike through nature and experience beautiful and romantic moments – just like in a winter fairy tale. Hochzeiger ski school offers guided snow shoe hikes.
Ice Climbing
Not for everyone but still a fascinating sport. The Pitztal glacier is sometimes among the most difficult tours in the World. Under the supervision of a specialist, you can learn to immerse yourself in this sport in safe terrain – discover the fascination of the ancient ice!
Tip from the Panorama: especially in bad weather, snow shoeing is an ideal alternative to skiing. Practice “stopping off” in huts for a drink here too.
