Snow shoe hiking in Faistenau

Walking or hiking with snowshoes has an ancient tradition, as even hunters and trappers built leather-covered wooden hoops to move well in the snow. Snowshoe hiking is the ideal way for every nature enthusiast to immerse themselves in the wintry fairy-tale landscape that the Salzkammergut offers and to participate as a silent observer in the spectacle of nature.

Walking with snowshoes is healthy for the whole body (90 % of the musculature is engaged) and is also a lot of fun. The technique is easy to learn, and after just a few steps, you find your rhythm in walking and the winter nature experience begins.
