Cross Country Skiing

Enjoy nature in a wholesome way

Cross country skiing brings movement to your life. Enjoy our breath-taking countryside in a relaxing atmosphere and escape your everyday routine.

Cross country skiing is one of the healthiest forms of exercise. Pressure on your ankle-joints will be minimalised by the gliding phase of the ski. Because all of your muscles are used, it is known to be a fantastic work-out for your heart and veins. Ideal for a starting sportsman or for everybody looking for a more intense form of wintersport. You will have a good time.

We are looking forward to meeting you.

CROSS COUNTRY SKIING TECHNICS

WHICH DO I TAKE?

CLASSIC:

You will move within two prepared tracks, that run next to each other (Loipe)
You will be more guided as with skating
An easy start because of the push off action within a diagonal step
Good for your stamina and control of your heart frequency
A cross country ski has a rough part in the middle “the push-off part”. By pushing the ski in the snow, this part will get a firm contact with the snow and you will move forward.

SKATING:

You don’t stay in a track (Loipe)
It looks a bit more dynamic
Skating movement
Interesting through its Speed
The cross country ski has a smooth surface and is a bit shorter. The push-off is side wards by the edges

Loipentip

After your instructions you can test the things, you have learnt in our cross country ski area. There are 25 km of different loipes, which will lead you through Gerlos of in our romantic valleys with its beautiful scenery. Of course there are small restaurants next to the loipe for a will deserved break.

The night loipe is open 7 days a week until 22.30.
