One of the largest cross-country skiing areas in Tyrol
Cross-country skiing - TOP in Kaiserwinkl
The network of cross-country ski trails in the Kaiserwinkl villages of Kössen, Walchsee, Schwendt and Rettenschöss offers perfectly groomed trails for up to 127.5 km classic and 126 km skating - a paradise for demanding athletes and motivated newcomers. No wonder that the Kaiserwinkl region is at the top of cross-country skiers' and skaters' list of their most favorite destinations in Europe!
By the way: two of our cross-country trails are snow-secure, because by storing and preserving artificial snow (snowfarming) we can guarantee you skiing fun on them regardless of this year's snowfall.
What's best? The use of the cross-country ski trails is free of charge here and in the neighboring region of Reit im Winkl!
