 Ski tours
-----------

 Our lifts and cable cars can also be exchanged for climbing skins to enjoy a unique nature experience: Making tracks in untouched snow. Ski touring and piste walking have become increasingly popular on our mountains. On the Hochwurzen, a special ascent trail therefore awaits you, leading through varied sections of piste and forest to the summit station of the Hochwurzen summit lift or to the summit of the Kleine Hochwurzen.
