    The cross-country skiing route is suitable for moderately advanced cross-country skiers and winter hikers. The well-prepared cross-country ski trail over a high plateau to the Flexenpass (1.773m) and back to Zürs is an insider's tip for those who are looking for a bit of peace and quiet away from busy cross-country ski trails.

    The somewhat challenging route Zürs – Flexenpass – Zürs is ideal for advanced cross-country skiers and winter hikers. Starting from Trittkopfbahn 1, follow the well-prepared cross-country trail and winter hiking trail south towards Flexenpass. Here you can either take a break in the rustic Flexenhäusl or follow the route further south. After the path makes a generous loop, the hilly route leads back to Zürs.

    The ideal spot to stop for a bite to eat is the rustic and cosy Flexenhäusl, directly on the pass summit, with home-style home cooking and fondue specialities.
