The snowshoe hike from Burgeis to the Watles family ski area valley
Station
The hike starts at the Fürstenburg Castle parking lot in Burgeis. The route
leads to the cultural center of Burgeis, past the parish church, along the
mountain lake back to the valley station. For those interested in culture, a
worthwhile stop is the Burgeis parish church, with its very unique
„Tatzelmännchen“ portal (pawed man).

The Furkelhütte mountain hut towers over Trafoi at an elevation of 2,153 m. Trail no. 17, which leads from Trafoi (near the lift station) to the Furkelhütte, is the classic option for winter and snowshoe hikes in the Trafoi area. It leads hikers on a two-hour excursion through a romantic forest setting to reach the hut. A renovated trench section shortly before the end of the trail provides a fascinating insight into the hard life endured by soldiers during WWI. The sun terrace boasts the best view of King Ortler and the surrounding mountain panorama – all the way through to the Stilfserjoch ridge. The return leg can also be completed via a 20-minute ride on the chairlift.
