The relaxed sledding fun away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Reachable within a short walk and conquer an impressive amount of altitude metres at the same time.

From Peist you can take a beautiful winter hiking trail to Skihaus Hochwang and walk back the same way. Alternatively, you can continue on foot to Triemel and then take the chairlift down to Fatschél.

Author’s recommendation

Drink a hot Ovo at the Skihaus Hochwang to warm your fingers.
