The Dobratsch Nature Park is the perfect area for a relaxed winter hike. The prepared hiking trail is an excellent way to explore the winter landscape. With its many vantage points, sunny spots and places to stop for refreshments, the trail quickly becomes your destination.

Author’s recommendation

A short culinary stop in the Rosstrattenstüberl is recommended to warm up on the way.
