    This leisurely winter hiking trail leads from the Silvretta cable car along the valley trail towards Kappl.

    After the Silvretta parking lot, cross a small bridge and follow the signs for "Winterwanderweg Ebene". Shortly after, cross the rushing Madlein stream and the districts of Versahl, Vergröß, Platt and finally Ebene follow. On this path, slightly above the Trisanna, you can escape the hustle and bustle of the lifestyle metropolis and enjoy the snow-covered scenery. In the hamlet of Ebene, there is a bus stop allowing you an easy return trip back to Ischgl. Those who still have some energy can hike back along the same route.

    The winter hiking trail up to the Mutta leads from Ischgl village centre through forests covered in deep snow uphill in switchbacks.

    From up here you have wonderful views across all of Ischgl and can observe the lively goings-on at a distance. The wide path winds uphill for 2.5 km, rewarding those getting to the top with great views. From the Silvretta cable car, walk past the parking lot and after crossing the bridge follow the signs for Mutta. On the way back, the route can be extended a bit and some sunshine caught by not walking back in direction of the parking lot again after Jungmann Inn, but taking the turn-off before and hiking to the hamlet of Paznaun. A few benches beckon to put in a rest, offering fine views of Ischgl town centre. From the hamlet of Paznaun, it's back to the village again.

    The Ischgl winter hiking trail is perfect as an initial explorative tour or something for more leisurely days when on winter holidays.

    With 5 km of level routing, it is not overly demanding yet leaves you with the feeling of actually having done something. The hiking trail starts right by the Silvretta parking lot and is marked with a sign (entry point to cross-country skiing trail). In the beginning, a short walk leads directly along the cross-country skiing trail before the route branches off onto a separate trail in the hamlet of Paznaun. The trail continues across level terrain for 2.5 km in direction of Mathon. Having arrived at the recycling yard, the following options are available: either take the same trail back (total length of hike 5 km) or take the bus back to Ischgl or continue hiking towards Galtür, where you can get on the Mathon winter hiking trail.

    This 6 km long winter hiking trail can be combined with the winter hiking trail from Ischgl. Alternatively, take the bus to the entry point.

    The route immediately starts off with a short climb, but then levels out again and continues on the gallery and then close to the forest to Mathon. When exiting the village, cross the Valzur stream and walk to the wildlife park located below. Here you can stop off at the inn or take a bus for the return trip. Alternatively, hike along the now opposite side of Trisanna stream back to Ischgl. The route proceeds almost exclusively level along the banks back to the starting point. Of course, the route can also be hiked in the opposite direction.

    If you want to combine a cross-border hiking trip with shopping, the Smugglers' Tour to duty-free Samnaun is just the thing for you.

    This tour can be adapted to your fitness level. You can decide by yourself whether you want to do the entire route by cable car and chairlift, or put in some sections of hiking. An experience of the special kind. From Ischgl village centre, either take the Fimba (A3) - or Silvretta cable car (A1) up to the Idalp at 2,300 m. Then take the Flimjoch chairlift (B2) to the Viderjoch hiking area at 2,700 m, which forms the border between Austria and Switzerland. Next take the Flimsattel chairlift (N1) to get to the Alp Trida Restaurant on Swiss soil. After a few metres on foot you'll reach the lower terminus of the chairlift "Alp Trider Sattelbahn" (N6). From up there, the double-deck aerial tramway (L1 or L2) goes back to Samnaun, where numerous shops are waiting to be explored. Please note: Begin return trip in Samnaun no later than 14:30, to make sure you can get back to Ischgl by lift all the way.

    The hike starts at the football pitch in Galtür, first walking along the Trisanna stream over level terrain to the hamlet of Tschaffein.

    From there, take the footway to the "Rifugio" holiday homes and then a short bit along the A-road, before continuing left back onto the steamrolled winter hiking trail. Above the road, hike through the woodland until walking down to the wildlife park along Valzurbach stream. After a short climb, continue along level terrain through the forest until getting to the romantically located forest chapel, and then the hamlet of Tschaffein, before arriving back in Galtür again. The entire circuit of a total of 9 km (from and back to Galtür) does require some fitness - but any effort is soon forgotten when taking in the views of the mighty Ballunspitze (2,671 m) rising up from Galtür. Those who think this is too far can shorten the circuit by hiking only to the wildlife park and taking a bus back to Galtür from there.

A meadow path leads to the left down to the Diasbahn lower terminus. Here you cross the road across Kohlplatz bridge, from where the forest path to Rotweg chapel begins.
