Winter holidays
Skiing pleasure & snow magic in the Alps
Snow and mountains belong to the dreamlike winter idyll. As well as a cabin in which you feel comfortable and look forward to every day in the snow. You can start your winter adventure directly from your cabin. Skiing on groomed slopes or in deep snow. Cross-country skiing on the trails of your vacation region. Snowshoeing, where the snow has spread like a white carpet. Or just frolicking in the snow, making snowballs, building snowmen and snowwomen, and tobogganing. Enjoy your favorite winter activities on your vacation.
Snowshoeing – Trend and tradition at the same time
In places where there is a lot of snow, people developed forms of snowshoes thousands of years ago to move more easily through the winter landscape. Timbers or a kind of frame were tied under the shoes. In Europe, between Ötztal and South Tyrol, a snowshoe was discovered in 2003 that is believed to date back to the Neolithic period. Today, snowshoeing is a popular trend for a unique nature experience away from cleared winter hiking trails. Hike through the snow and enjoy the silence of winter.
Skiing vacation – Fun on the slopes in the Alps
With so many ski resorts to choose from, you just have to decide where you would like to spend your vacation: The large ones have countless kilometers of slopes and often also the most modern ski lifts and snow-making equipment. Smaller ski resorts offer advantages precisely because of their clarity. Some advertise "skiing without queuing" at the ski lifts. Awards and ratings from various portals such as Skiresort.de provide orientation.
A skiing vacation with your dog - everyone wants to be in the snow
White winter splendor is not only fun for adults and children. Dogs also love to romp around in the snow. Often, the four-legged friends do not know a wide snow cover at all and are fascinated by the "playground" that awaits them on a ski vacation. Experts recommend creaming the paws of the dogs before the trip in the snow – so less snow, ice, and road salt can settle between the toes. Then nothing stands in the way of the pleasure in the snow.
Winter events - attractions on vacation
Reserve your ski lodge for times when winter events are in progress. Ski opening and ski closing are often celebrated with music and partying at larger ski resorts. Christmas markets, ski shows and so much more are on the event program in tourist communities.
