Skiing, hiking and more in the Tyrolean Tannheimer Tal
Get active in a charming setting
The region around the Schrofen Chalets is ideal for a variety of leisure activities. Fortunately, very few people know about this yet. So, you can enjoy the mountains, nature and tranquility almost undisturbed – whether in winter on snow-sure ski slopes and cross-country tracks or in summer on relaxing hiking trails with impressive panoramic views.
We have prepared a few suggestions for Jungholz and the entire Tannheimer Tal for you below – on site, we will be happy to share another insider tip or two.
Fantastic skiing on sunny slopes
A total of six ski areas in the Tannheimer Tal are virtually on the doorstep of your Schrofen Chalet. This keeps distances short and the selection diverse. Thanks to the combination ski passes available, there's even more, because in the immediate vicinity you'll find some of the most beautiful ski areas in Tyrol, the Kleinwalsertal and the neighboring Allgäu. This makes the options literally limitless. And so is the fun in the snow – our high valley at 1,100 meters has always been considered snow-sure.
Cross-country skiing and snow hiking among snowy peaks
Two tracks in the snow – and your winter happiness is complete. Thanks to a total of 140 kilometers of cross-country ski tracks, you can explore the most beautiful corners of the Tannheimer Tal. Through beautiful nature reserves. Passing fantastic panoramas. And always breathing crystal clear air. You can also take a deep breath on the many snow-covered paths during a fantastic winter hike – whether in the valley around frozen mountain lakes or high up on challenging summit tours.
Unforgettable fun sledding and ice skating
Who says it always has to be skis? Snow vacations become especially fun when parents and children sled down the slopes together. Eight toboggan runs are available in the immediate vicinity of the Schrofen Chalets, from very gentle to furiously fast. At the nearby Haldensee lake, you can turn artistic pirouettes while ice skating and afterwards try your hand at curling together. And always in view are the magnificent snow-covered mountain peaks.
Relaxed hiking through pristine Alpine nature
Many vacationers claim that the Tannheimer Tal is Austria's most beautiful hiking region. We can only agree. And you can start right on your doorstep. Look forward to cozy tours through quiet valleys and over green slopes. Collect unforgettable experiences on unique panoramic trails and charming summit tours with plenty of geocaching highlights. And if you like things a bit more challenging, take on the via ferrates, which enjoy an excellent reputation among mountaineers far beyond the valley.
Biking on perfect trails and routes
All the happiness of the earth is in the saddle... a bike saddle. This never truer than around the Schrofen Chalets in the Tannheimer Tal. Avid bikers will explore 15 bike trails and single trails with a total of 150 kilometers, which are approved and signposted. In addition, the Bike Trail Tirol starts here, which allows you to put together your own individual route. But our high valley is also popular for racing bike tours. Even professionals appreciate the routes through lush green valleys and the fabulous mountain views along the way.
Swimming pleasure in deep blue mountain lakes
Nothing is more refreshing on hot days than a jump into a crystal-clear mountain lake. Several of these lakes can be found around Jungholz. To cool down, you can choose the Haldensee, the Vilsalpsee, the Höfersee or the pristine Floschen moor pond. Getting there leads you through shady forests, offering a beautiful view of the mountain panorama every now and then. In the mood for more action? Then visit the outdoor pools in the region – offering sliding fun, a heated children’s pool and miniature golf. You will find one of these outdoor swimming pools just opposite the Schrofen Chalets, only 500 m away
