Winter Hiking in Nassfeld: What You Need to Know for Your First Snowshoe Hike

Strolling through the winter forest, spotting tracks in the snow, and breathing in the fresh mountain air—that’s what makes winter hiking around Hermagor such a treat for both body and soul.

Unforgettable Experiences Away from the Slopes

If you prefer to enjoy winter at a slower pace, winter hiking and snowshoeing are the perfect alternatives to skiing. Directly from the nawu apartments, marked walking and winter hiking trails lead you through snow-covered meadows, peaceful forests and up to sunny viewpoints. Every step through the sparkling snow helps you slow down and take a moment to pause. Listen to the wind, follow animal tracks in the snow and breathe in the fresh, crisp mountain air – a natural experience that is especially suitable for beginners and families.

For those who want to venture a little higher, the Nassfeld region and the Carnic Alps offer numerous snowshoe trails. Here, you can hike across wide slopes, enjoy panoramic views stretching all the way to Italy and experience winter from a completely new perspective. Whether it’s a relaxing walk or your first snowshoe tour with gentle climbs – the region offers ideal conditions for every pace. The necessary equipment, such as snowshoes, can be conveniently rented in the village.
