Where the winter lives

Quietly the snowflakes fall in the Biosphere Reserve of Grosses Walsertal, turning the entire valley into a place of enchantment. Here in the mountains, winter makes itself at home. It is a time of red cheeks and crackling chimney fires, and crunching steps in soft snow.

In the small but high-quality ski areas in the Grosses Walsertal, both young and old can find plenty to do: In Raggal, beginners can practise on three cable lifts – in the middle of the village. For superior winter sportsmen and women, Sonntag-Stein has several challenges to offer. In Faschina, you can reside directly next to the lift. What more could a sporting heart wish for?!

Experience Carving from its best side and carry out your swings on free slopes in snow with great traction – whether on skis or on your snowboard! To get your breath back, practise the refreshment swing now and then at one of the mountain huts, or stop for a conversation with the lift supervisor. Those expecting long queues won’t find them in Grosses Walsertal!
