Away from the much-trampled paths you will conquer deep snowy forests and untouched winter landscapes with snow shoes.

Wildlife areas & wildlife reserves

For wild animals a hard winter means a naked fight for survival. Therefore please respect the wildlife resting areas.

The unexpected appearance of a freerider can be problematic for wild animals in winter: an escape costs a lot of energy, which is then lacking to survive. Four simple rules help.

Freeriders are happy about a lot of fresh snow. For wild animals, on the other hand, this means one thing above all else: a naked fight for survival. Because what deer, deer, chamois and ibex normally scrape out of the snow to eat is now under a thick blanket of snow. Wild animals are therefore forced to use their energy sparingly. If they are disturbed and forced to flee, their survival is at risk.
