Sporty on the road in idyllic nature
Nowadays also called skating or Nordic cruising, cross-country skiing has been developing into a real trend sport in winter for years and is a real alternative to classic alpine skiing. Away from crowded pistes, cross-country skiing in idyllic nature is quieter, but also particularly sporty. Hardly any other sport is as strenuous and demands 95 percent of the muscular system even at moderate speed. Discover beautiful cross-country skiing destinations with ideal snow conditions and extensive trails and actively plunge into your next winter adventure.
