    Mountain guesthouse Piz Buin - Paznauntal - Wirl/Galtür - same route back

    The cross-country skiing trail to Wirl/Galtür is very demanding, as it involves an altitude difference of just under 400 meters. Safe downhill skiing is a prerequisite.

    The cross-country ski trail is only open under safe snow conditions. In Montafon, the cross-country ski trails can be used free of charge.
