Winter vibes

Pianer Kreuz

The crunch of fresh snow underfoot, clear mountain air in your lungs and views of the Dolomites. This snowshoe hike is breathtakingly beautiful – it sums up exactly why we love South Tyrol in winter.

Snowshoe bliss

Wintry forest & open spaces

This is one of our favourite snowshoe tours for clearing the head. Starting at Gasthof Tulper, you delve deeper and deeper into the silent winter wonderland. You pass snow-covered alpine meadows and exposed hillsides until everything suddenly opens up at the Pianer Kreuz. Open countryside. Light. Peace. And afterwards? Warm up over a hot drink and a tasty bite to eat. Bliss!
