Kaunertal-Feichten: high-alpine mountain adventures
Whether you’re a snowboarder, skier, freerider or ski tourer: As an avid winter sports enthusiast, Feichten in the Kaunertal is your ultimate destination.
Why? Because you can look forward to an extra-long winter season at the nearby Kaunertal Glacier ski resort. From autumn to late spring, you can carve down snow-sure slopes and enjoy the best conditions. If you prefer to go exploring off the slopes, the Kaunertal also boasts a vast network of winter hiking trails and two exhilarating toboggan runs, in addition to impeccably groomed cross-country ski trails. Even in the warm summer months, Feichten’s mountain world offers after-work adventures aplenty.
How about embarking on a high-alpine hike to one of the many 3,000-metre peaks – or tackling one of the challenging trails on your mountain bike? With its diverse rock formations and via ferratas, the Kaunertal is also a paradise for rock climbers and bouldering enthusiasts.
For an active yet relaxed way to spend your days off, head to Verpeilschlucht gorge! Next to a roaring waterfall, you’ll hike along trails, over steps and across a suspension bridge. After a leisurely hike with breathtaking mountain vistas, we recommend treating yourself to culinary delights from the local huts and Alpine inns.
