Ski until your "calves" glow, trudge through deep snow as far as your feet will take you: If you love winter as much as we do, then a holiday in the snow-covered Ahrntal valley is just right for you. The ski bus will take you to the Speikboden lift or the Klausberg within a few minutes, and for even more piste fun, the legendary Kronplatz beckons. Especially around Christmas, the region shows its contemplative-traditional side and enchants with South Tyrolean Advent traditions and magical flair.

 

The most beautiful slopes in South Tyrol

Hop on the ski bus and you're practically there! Within a few minutes you can reach the wonderful skiing area Speikboden from the Garni Zimmerhofer. Over 40 kilometres of varied pistes are a joy for beginners and experienced skiers alike. Together with the Klausberg ski area, which lies only a few kilometres further down the valley, Speikboden forms Skiworld Ahrntal. Even more skiing fun is offered by the Kronplatz, only 20 kilometres away, which you can see from the Garni Zimmerhofer. Over 120 legendary kilometres of pistes await you there.

 

On quiet soles and narrow skis

If you prefer to enjoy the winter away from the ski slopes, you've come to the right place here in the Tauferer Ahrntal. Whether snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, tobogganing, winter hiking or touring - the mountains of the Zillertal Alps and the Rieserferner Ahr Nature Park offer you countless opportunities to be active during the cold season.

 

Advent in the Ahrntal

How enchanting! How romantic! How contemplative! Once you have experienced the pre-Christmas season in Sand in Taufers and the surrounding area, you will never get over your enthusiasm. Visit the magical winter fairytale forest and walk to the frozen waterfalls accompanied by sounds and lights or experience traditional Christmas market flair and pre-Christmas shopping pleasure at the Brunecker Bergadvent.
