Ski touring in Villgratental

Villgratental is one of the few valleys without a ski lift, which makes our area an perfect base for ski touring. Once you enter the valley, you will immediately notice that there are wonderful unspoilt traditional farmhouses. This "mountaineering village" is excellent for both ski touring and snow shoe trekking.

A paradise for ski touring

Ski touring is possible right after the first big snowfall. Because of the special 'blocking' effect, Villgratental is in a very favourable location and therefore normally offers great touring conditions throughout the winter.

Our 'Natur Residenz' is a popular address for tourers.
