Beautiful circular route in the Sörenberg winter wonderland.

At the start of the hike, you gently float up over the ski slopes with the gondola to Rossweid. From there, the impressive hike through the moorlands to Salwideli begins. With the gnarled, snow-covered mountain pines, you feel transported to another world. From Salwideli, the trail leads back to the village of Sörenberg on well-prepared winter hiking trails.

Safety guidelines

Please observe the following points on the winter hiking trails:

  • Stay on the marked routes
  • If possible, avoid the cross-country ski trails. If not possible, walk in single file and do not step into the tracks.
  • Plan enough time and monitor the weather
  • Behave quietly, so there is a chance to see wildlife; observe animals from a respectful distance
  • Your dogs are allowed to do winter sports with us, but must be on a leash
  • Take your trash home with your beautiful memories.

If outdoor sports enthusiasts respect the space of wild animals, fewer prohibitions and restrictions are needed and the natural landscape remains open for genuine nature experiences. We ask for careful consideration and thank you for it!
