The quiet and peaceful PillerseeTal has become legendary
for its long days of assured snow, a fact also well appreciated
by winter sports enthusiasts. The pleasant atmosphere
at rustic ski huts, the romantic feeling and snow as
far as the eye can see all add up to an irresistible
combination.

Skiing / Snowboarding
In addition to ‘hot’ moguls,
racy carving runs and lively family downhills visitors also
like coming to our region because of its traditional mountain
inns and convivial ski huts. It’s where passionate
skiers can recharge their batteries, where sun-lovers get
great tans and the ‘in crowd’ revels in the fun.
The PillerseeTal region has a uniquely
professional cross-country reputation to maintain. Over 100
km of multiple track trails (most of them with a standard
and skating track!) are carefully groomed once a day in winter.
all cross-country trails have the

With some 100 km of groomed winter
hiking trails to mull over, the non alpine skier or occasional
hiker is spoilt for choice. The trails lead to and through
the most beautiful parts of the PillerseeTal, and your efforts
at the end of many trails are finally rewarded by the welcoming,
warm surroundings of a snug mountain inn or refreshment stop.
Enjoy some wonderfully romantic hours when thick snowflakes
cast a bewitching spell over the surrounding countryside.
During the daytime, whizzing down the
slopes on two skids is brilliant fun – but an evening’s
tobogganing has its own, very special charm. The tobogganing
run has floodlighting, so it can be used after sunset. But
before you enter the snug surroundings of the alpine huts,
you have to get up the mountain in the first place: sporty
types will choose to climb, with the more leisurely-inclined
opting to take a taxi.
