Winter sports with foresight

Winter in Galtür

Cross-country skiing, ski touring and snowshoeing are winter sports in which endurance and experiencing nature play the main roles.

That peace and quiet when you are the first on the cross-country trail, the first to conquer the mountain on touring skis, the first to grab your snowshoes in the early morning: you can only experience that with these quiet winter sports that make their grand entrance in Galtür. 74 km of trails for classic and free technique are available to cross-country skiing fans, ski tourers and snowshoe hikers are spoilt for choice with all the possibilities.

Winter sports very gently

Winter sports are a top priority in Galtür. However, this does not mean that nature takes a back seat; Galtür is a winter sports resort with foresight: it is clear to the population that the intact village must be preserved in an intact natural environment. This was also taken into account when developing the Silvapark Galtür ski area.
