WINTER IN THE VENOSTA VALLEY – HIKING, SKIING, CHRISTMAS MARKETS AND SUNNY WINTER DAYS
Ready
for the slopes
Reasons not to go on a ski holiday this year? We can’t think of any. Standing at the top, taking in the view and knowing the run is all yours – that moment is hard to beat.
The Schnalstal Valley ski area is just a 30-minute drive away, while Sulden can be reached in about an hour. From gentle slopes to demanding runs, there’s something for every level. For a more peaceful alternative, the Martelltal and Schnalstal Valleys offer some of the finest ski touring routes in the Venosta Valley.

Cross-country skiing &
snowshoe hiking
Winter lovers will feel right at home on the Nörderberg mountain, where snow-covered landscapes and peaceful forests define the season. Snowshoe hikes lead you through untouched nature, offering calm and quiet far away from busy ski resorts.
Additional snowshoe routes and beautifully maintained cross-country ski trails await in the Martelltal and Schnalstal Valleys – perfect for relaxed winter days.

More winter experiences
Winter in the Venosta Valley offers far more than you might expect. Some mountain huts stay open, while sports enthusiasts can try ice climbing on ice towers or frozen waterfalls, or head out on demanding high-alpine tours.
Sun seekers will enjoy winter walks on the Sonnenberg mountain, where snow is often scarce even during the colder months. No matter what you choose, bus and train take you there and back with ease – free of charge thanks to the South Tyrol Guest Pass Venosta Valley.

Kaiserschmarrn belongs to winter just as rosy cheeks belong to crisp Alpine air. In the mountain huts, hosts are always ready with the perfect culinary break for tired adventurers. Add a friendly smile, a short chat and sweeping views of snow-covered peaks – and the moment is complete.
