CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING: TRINS & THE THREE VALLEYS

Just south of historic Innsbruck, our base is the authentic and charming Tyrolean village of Trins, set at about 1200m. Immensely popular with our groups for many years, this quaint village allows access to a large variety of skiing areas. To the west, two beautiful valleys - Gschnitztal and Obernbergtal - extend to the great peaks and glaciers of the Stubai Alps. A third valley, Schmirntal, rises east into the Zillertal Alps. On this holiday we ski in all three, exploring meadows and woods, quiet villages and working farms. A fourth skiing location is available at Mariawaldrast (1700m), a unique mountain location which combines high-altitude skiing and a former mediaeval Servite monastery, with a welcoming cafe where you may well be served by the last remaining monk. Each of these regions offers spectacular scenery in peaceful locations, and after a hard day's skiing we can always relax in the bar for afternoon tea and fresh cakes.
