December 2025 to April 2026 - Piesendorf

Everything has its time and its history! Why did people smoke in the past? And what sense does it make? During a short smoking lesson with homemade punch in the cosy farmhouse parlour of the Dietlgut, you will learn all about the spirit of the plants and their effect on body and soul.

December 2025 to April 2026 - Piesendorf

A special time-out centred around horses, bringing together joy, calm and playful learning. During this experience, children - and adults too - discover just how beneficial contact with ponies can be. In a safe, relaxed setting, it's all about sharing moments, feeling at ease and exploring something new together. At the same time, time spent with the animals offers a chance to recharge, rebuild energy and find inner balance. 

"Auszeit PFERD" shows that encounters with horses are about so much more than just riding. It is a conscious pause, a moment to feel, to breathe and to truly arrive in the here and now. An experience with a lasting effect - and one that will stay in your memory for a long time. 

2nd January to 6th March 2026 - Schmittenhöhe Zell am See

Savour the quiet of the snow-covered mountains on a snowshoe hike. From the Schmittenhöhe you follow the scenic high-altitude promenade towards the Sonnkogel, with broad views over Lake Zell and across to the snow-clad three-thousand-metre peaks of the Hohe Tauern. A highlight is the Schrambachkopf with the artwork "Opfertisch or a Halleluja". The tour finishes with a joint descent to the Sonnkogel Restaurant and the Sonnkogelbahn. 

All that's left to say: pull on your warm winter boots, pack a hot drink and off you go! Snowhoes and poles can be hired on site for a small fee. 

2nd January to 3rd April 2026 - Mittersill

The guided snowshoe hike takes you through the Wasenmoos at Pass Thurn, revealing the impressive grandeur of the Hohe Tauern Mountains. The wintry moor and adjacent forest offers insights into the wildlife and their tracks. The tour concludes at the starting point, accompanied by the majestic mountain scenery. 

2nd January to 3rd April 2026 - Rauris

Participants are taken by shuttle bus to the starting point at the Lenzanger car park, from where a wonderful snowshoe hike into the Rauris primeval forest awaits. The hike through the snow-covered old pine and spruce stands will bring the magic of winter to life. The way back is on a toboggan.

2nd January to 27th February 2026 - Bramberg am Wildkogel
