Far away from the big skiing resorts and the crowded tourism centres, we find valid alternatives in the valley of Lüsen, in order to leave our daily stressful routine behind us.
Here we can dive in the silence of the untouched winter landscape and discover the winter sport which is most adequate for us, from sledging to snowshoe hiking.
Our body, spirit and soul will find peace and strength in the isolation of the marvellous mountain world.
The snowshoe hikers will leave their traces on the legendary Alp of Lüsen, among coniferous forests, snow-cowered alpine pastures and huts, passing feeding troughs for deer, chamois and ibexes. Whoever is used to hike in the mountains will be able to enjoy the snowshoe trails, as long as provided with the especially designed snowshoes. However we strongly advise you to join a guided group.
Snowshoe hiking is an extremely healthy and relaxing winter sport, like cross-country skiing. It is also cheap: The equipment consists in normal weatherproof clothing, snowshoes and walking poles, which can be rent in several Hotels in Lüsen.
The region around the valley of Lüsen offers, besides the refreshing winter trails, also many opportunities to sledge. Wonderful cross-country skiing tracks are waiting to be used on the Alp of Lüsen and in the game reserve Puez-Geisler.
The slopes on the mountain of Lüsen and in the skiing resort of Plose offer a variety of ski runs for our fellow skiers.
