Circular trail or skating trail – classic or skating?

And if that’s not enough, you can use the connection to the Pinzgau trail, which is more than 200 km long, to really challenge yourself. You can take the trails to Kaprun, Zell am See and up the river in the direction of Mittersill at the entry point at the Sportcamp Woferlgut. A skating trail also runs parallel to the classic trail.

In addition, cross-country skiers will discover some extraordinary conditions in the Kitzsteinhorn glacier ski area, and you will feel the benefits of the effective altitude training on the Kitzsteinhorn from the autumn. The glacier plateau at an altitude of 2,900 m has a 3 km long high-altitude track, which is the meeting point for all fans of this Nordic sport.
