Winter fun & a variety of slopes on a ski holiday in Tyrol

A new morning in winter in the Alpbachtal greets you with blue skies and sunshine. Pull on your gloves, put your hat on and head out into the crisp & cold white, winter world!

Christmas & New Year's Eve in the Alps at the Hotel Kirchenwirt

The atmosphere is especially beautiful in the Alpbachtal at Christmas time and the turn of the year. The regional Advent Markets spread romance and reflection. Medieval Rattenberg is an especially quaint place for pre-Christmas joy, with its candlelight and the flickering fires. And the "Anklöpfler" are a traditional Christmas custom - they visit us in the Hotel Kirchenwirt!
On New Year's eve we greet the new year with a brilliant party: "Cheers!"

Snowshoe hiking in the Alpbachtal in Tyrol

Find your inner big foot: on a snowshoe hike! You will be amazed at the huge footprints you leave behind ;-). And you will be even more amazed at how easily you can hike through Tyrol's most beautiful snow landscape. March to magnificent lookout points that you would never be able to experience without snowshoes.

The Kirchenwirt snowshoe hike tip: take the nearby Reitherkogelbahn cable car to the mountain station. There, along the Juppi enchanted forest path and over the meadows to the Hinterkogelhof, you can enjoy the wonderful view. Hike via the Fürstenhof back to the mountain station. For further snowshoe hiking tips visit us at the reception desk.

Sledding in Reith / Alpbachtal & ice skating & cross-country skiing

Sooo much diversity for friends of sledding: There are 8 sledding runs in the Alpbachtal – one of them is directly in Reith. It is the longest with 6.5 km and, thanks to the curves and turns, it is somewhat challenging. It's the perfect sledding run for practiced sledders looking for a new challenge. Sledding in Reith means: sledding along the panorama trail around the Reither Kogel and down to the valley. Use the Reitherkogelbahn cable car to travel up the mountain – sleds can be rented for free at the Hotel Kirchenwirt.
