Ski touring in the mountains of East Tyrol

The mountain paradise of East Tyrol, with its many valleys stretching from the entire Glockner region in the north to the Virgental, Defereggental and Pustertal valleys in the south, offers unique touring opportunities (find out more here).

Our guests can be accompanied by professional ski guides on request (please enquire in advance!). Equipment, touring skis, boots, gaiters and skins can be organised on site; please speak to us personally about this.

Thanks to the high density of mighty mountains and the many officially registered ski touring routes, both beginners and experienced ski tourers will find ideal conditions. Sunny slopes, snow-covered valleys and cosy huts also ensure unforgettable moments away from the hustle and bustle.

Sledging on the natural toboggan run in the Dolomites

Fun for the whole family! Tobogganing can be enjoyed throughout East Tyrol and in all valleys.

In the immediate vicinity of the hotel there is a perfectly groomed 7.5 km long natural toboggan run, which is also open at night. Taxis take you up to the Dolomitenhütte (dolomitenhuette.at) at 1600 m, where you can enjoy a beautiful mountain walk before the descent.

The fun toboggan ride then takes you down from the Dolomitenhütte to the Kreithof (1048 m) and from there on to the shores of Lake Tristach (830 m) and back to the hotel.
