Winter hiking in Austria

Popular winter hiking trails in Schoppernau and the surrounding area

In Vorarlberg, winter hiking becomes a special form of exercise in nature. Far away from everyday life, the Bregenzerwald offers a winter landscape that is ideal for peaceful walks and long hikes. Well-groomed winter hiking trails lead through snow-covered forests, along open spaces and through gently rolling hills. The different routes are suitable for beginners as well as experienced winter hikers. Several winter hiking trails can be reached in a short time from the Spa Hotel Hirschen.

 

Dorfrunde Schoppernau

The "Dorfrunde Schoppernau" is a groomed winter hiking trail that leads through the village and along the Bregenzerache river. The route is flat to slightly hilly and is ideal for relaxed walks in winter. The trail passes snow-covered meadows, traditional houses and quiet stretches of riverbank. Several entry points and shortcuts allow for flexible route lengths. The "Dorfrunde Schoppernau" is also well suited for shorter winter hikes in between.
