Winter activities
"We love winter in the Val Pusteria/Pustertal Valley!"
Alta Pusteria with its white splendor in winter is a welcome change from the stress of everyday life. The Pustertal Valley offers countless opportunities to do sports in the cold season. Family-friendly, uncrowded ski areas in Sillian, Kartitsch and Obertilliach offer more than 60 km of fun on the slopes.
Several times a day you have the opportunity to get to the valley station of the Alta Pusteria ski area free of charge. Our guesthouse is only 2 km away from the Thurntaler ski area. The ski bus stop is right in front of our house. The train runs at regular intervals to the neighboring Drei Zinnen and Kronplatz ski areas.
The local mountains are a real gem for ski tourers. Tours in the Villgraten and Lesachtal valleys are particularly popular, not forgetting the South Tyrolean Dolomites (UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2009).
For those who prefer to strap on their cross-country skis, there are a total of 120 km of perfectly groomed skating and double-track trails.
Red cheeks - a feeling of well-being. The romantic winter landscape and the cold, fresh air are perfect for long winter hikes, horse-drawn sleigh rides, sledding and numerous laps on the ice rinks.
Summer activities
We love summer in East Tyrol!
Rain or shine – there is a suitable activity for every weather.
We can only give you a fraction of the countless possibilities. You can of course obtain more detailed information from us or from the brochures, and the tourist office in Sillian/Hochpustertal will also be happy to provide you with information.
Across the Drau cycle path from Sillian to Lienz – a Hike to the surrounding huts (Leckfeldalm, Sillianer Hütte, Thurntaler Rast), a tee-off on the golf course in Lavant – to the Outdoor swimming pools in Lienz, Leisach or Thal, a visit to the Assling wildlife park, try out the year-round toboggan run on rails on the Hochstein in Lienz, rediscover your senses at the Vitalpinum in Thal, follow in the footsteps of the ancient Romans at the “Aguntum” museum.
Heinfels Castle, the pearl of Pustra Valley offers guided tours around the castle and cultural summer events.
Relaxing in the “Aquafun” indoor pool in San Candido or in the “The Dolomitenbad Lienz”, a visit to the “Schloss Bruck” museum in Lienz followed by a stroll through the town, fancy a sweet treat? “Il mondo di Loacker” in Heinfels, the Pichler chocolate world in Sillian, the folklore museum in Dietenheim, the show dairy in Toblach or a detour to the Villgratental valley with its countless local craft businesses.
