Cross-country skiing trail A12 Scharnitz adaptive cross-country skiing route

closed
Scharnitz
Difficulty ratings: easy
Route length: 3.4 km

Sled runners soak up plenty of sun in Scharnitz. However, the run from the village center to Gießenbach is not as easy as it looks at first glance.

We recommend because:

  • Beautiful toboggan run with challenging sections for advanced skiers
  • Particularly sunny round on meadow terrain
  • Refreshment stops in Scharnitz and Gießenbach
