Take it a little slower and soak in the views by snowshoeing along glistening and gurgling Lavierenbach Creek in Tulfes. With a modest elevation gain of 150 meters, this easy walk is perfect to practice snowshoeing with kids or first-timers. Catch your breath not from climbing, but from watching a continuous reel of premiere showings starring Inntal Valley below. If that’s not enough to slack your jaw, the lofty peaks of rugged Karwendel Range, Austria’s largest Nature Park, hovering over the valley will most certainly captivate you.
