Description
Description:
From the parking lot by the ski lifts, head toward the church. At the bandstand, turn right onto Schnitzerweg. Follow this “Art Trail” to the Langenschwand district and continue to the edge of town. Here, the trail branches off to the left toward the Stubental Alpe. After a break—either on foot or by toboggan, which can be rented at the hut—head back to Langenschwand, where a signpost by the chapel points to the right onto the Panoramaweg. The Panoramaweg leads above Jungholz to the hamlet of Gießenschwand and offers beautiful views along the way. Shortly before Gießenschwand, the trail descends into the village. Pass through the village and turn left at the main road, continuing on to the church. To the right of the church are the parking lots and the starting point of the hike. Several places to stop for refreshments make the cool winter temperatures easier to bear.Directions:
This winter hike takes place on trails that have been well cleared and, if necessary, also salted. The trail to the Stubental Alpe is not salted, as it is also used for sledding.Tip:
Winter hiking, sledding, and several places to stop for refreshments make this hike so varied.Safety guidelines:
Please note that there is an increased risk of accidents and injuries even when hiking in winter. Especially in winter, you should pay close attention to trail conditions. Depending on the length and route you choose, thorough trip planning and good physical fitness are essential. Appropriate clothing, sturdy footwear, and possibly hiking poles provide added safety. Stay on the marked trails.Equipment:
Modern, well-maintained gear (boots, poles, and clothing) not only provides a significant level of safety but also makes winter hiking much easier. Don’t forget sunscreen (with a high SPF) and sunglasses, if needed, as well as plenty of fluids.Additional information:
