Skitourenwochenende – Sanfte Skitouren
Gentle ski touring days in the sun-kissed mountains of South Tyrol – with enjoyable ascents, beautiful descents and plenty of time to catch your breath.
6 days
Gentle ski tours in South Tyrol: an offer for keen ski tourers and everyone who would like to become one. The ski tours in this programme are specifically designed around enjoyable, easy ascents and beautiful descents without steep sections. The focus here is on enjoyment and the pleasure of being out on skis in the wintry landscape of South Tyrol.
For a whole week, we'll make the most of the sun-kissed ski touring mountains in the heart of South Tyrol and enjoy the wintry mountain scenery. But rest and relaxation between the individual touring days won't be neglected either: we'll stay in wonderful accommodation where we'll want for nothing.
A ski touring week that promises more holiday, calm and grounding than many a trip – without neglecting the sporting side.
*Due to high demand and occupancy at the top hotels in South Tyrol, booking very early – especially for the most popular periods – is essential!

PROGRAMME
Day 1: Arrival and warm-up tour
We meet on the morning of the first day. The exact meeting point will be announced at short notice, depending on snow and conditions. Straight afterwards, we head out on a ski tour together, giving us the chance to get to know each other and warm up as a group for the touring days ahead. Then we go to our accommodation and check in. The afternoon is free, and everyone can make use of the hotel's facilities – wellness area, sauna or bar – however they like. In the evening, we get together again, briefly go over the next day's tour and round off the day over a relaxed dinner together.
Days 2–5: Ski tours around the hotel
Over the following days, we'll stay in the area around the hotel and, if snow and weather allow, avoid long drives. Instead, we'll enjoy the beautiful ski touring peaks right on our doorstep. The tours are always tailored to the group and the participants' wishes, so that everyone has a great week. If you'd like to take a rest day, you're of course welcome to do so at any time. The afternoons are free and can be spent unwinding in the hotel's wellness area or sauna, enjoying good conversation at the bar – or on a short excursion.
Walking time: 2–3.5 h | ↑ 600–1,000 m | ↓ 600–1,000 m | Difficulty: L–WS
Day 6: Final tour and journey home
On the last day of this ski touring week, after checking out of the hotel, we'll do one last tour together and say goodbye in the early afternoon, so that everyone can set off home at a relaxed pace. Ideally, you'll return home relaxed and balanced after a few really good days out in the snow. And yes – then you can tackle the challenges of everyday life with a smile on your face again.
Any changes to the programme that may become necessary for various reasons (weather, conditions, availability of accommodation, etc.) are always made in consultation with the participants.
