Every Tuesday:
Classic cross-country skiing for beginners
The whole body workout that is fun
Relaxation at the highest level is guaranteed despite the exertion of cross-country skiing. 12 kilometres of trails lead through the snow-covered landscape in Obergurgl, where you can really work off your energy. Cross-country skiing is a sport that trains the whole body through movement. The best way to ensure that you are skiing correctly right from the start is to sign up for a beginners' cross-country skiing course at the Obergurgl ski school.
Cross-country skiing trains every muscle and, above all, continuously improves your fitness. This sport, which originated in Scandinavia, is also very popular in Austria. The Ötztal also offers the best conditions for it.

Once you have learnt the movements involved in cross-country skiing, this sport is a lot of fun. So that you don't have to struggle with the technique on your own, why not take the opportunity to attend a cross-country skiing course at the Obergurgl ski school? Together with our winter sports instructors, you will learn the basics quickly and effectively and will be able to ski your first laps after just a few moments.

Every Wednesday:
Snowshoes - Dive deep into the fascinating winter world
Even in the Stone Age, hunters and gatherers realised that effortless progress in the deep snow of winter was only possible with snowshoes. Since the mid-1990s, this form of transport has become a new trend sport and an alternative to classic ski tours.
Walking through the deep snow on snowshoes and seeing the winter world with different eyes is a special nature experience for young and old. If you can walk, you can also go snowshoe hiking. We offer the snowshoe hike every Wednesday afternoon. The minimum number of participants is 4 people, please book directly the day before by 5 pm.
Snowshoeing in Gurgl
Only a few items are required: good hiking boots or ski boots, hiking poles and snowshoes. You can hire snowshoes from the ski school office before the start of the hike. Here with us in Obergurgl you can be close to nature, really enjoy the fresh mountain air of the Ötztal Alps and get to know the Alps from a different perspective away from the paths or pistes. Experience an unforgettable hike with your family or friends.
