Description
Away from the bustle of the ski slopes, it is a special pleasure on the snowshoe trail Pardiel - Laufböden to enjoy the idyll of nature at Pizol.
Step by step the crackling of the snow lets our thoughts drift away and clears our mind. In doing so, we let our gaze wander over the Eastern Swiss, Liechtenstein and Austrian Alps and are enchanted by the mountain scenery. The fairytale winter landscape and the soothing movements provide recovery, relaxation and a vital body feeling.
The route ends on the Pizol high plateau at 2,222 m above sea level, which is like a naturally formed tribune in front of the UNESCO World Heritage Tektonikarena Sardona. The collision of Africa with Europe has piled up the Alps over millions of years. Original rock layers have been pushed on top of each other, folded and broken. Various testimonies and traces of these tremendous forces are particularly well visible in the Sardona World Heritage site.
