Winter activities
Explore our beautiful winter landscape on our winter hiking trails, snowshoe trails, sledding slopes, the ski slope in Binn and at he natural ice rink in Grengiols.
The snowshoe trails are marked routes. These are ideal if you want to familiarize yourself with snowshoes for the first time. The winter hiking trails, on the other hand, are prepared and can be walked on with good winter shoes (without snowshoes).
Please note that trails and slopes can only be prepared when snow conditions allow. The natural ice rink in Grengiols requires sufficiently cold temperatures, while cross-country ski trails and toboggan runs need an adequately deep snow cover.
There is no artificial snowmaking in the Binntal Nature Park.
