Particularly in the cold season, it’s important to get active out in the fresh air to reduce stress and boost the immune system. Our favourite way of doing so: a ski tour!

Sometimes, especially while we’re stuck working from home, the walls seem to close in on us. We spend the whole day staring at the screen and only catch a glimpse of nature through the window. All we want to do is escape into the beautiful, springlike landscape. Sure, on workdays we might only have time for a quick walk, but at the weekend we have plenty of time to recharge our reserves of energy and vitamin D with a good tour. For us, the Pfister family, our favourite way of doing so is with a ski tour. A feeling of freedom, sparkling snowscapes, and crisp mountain air – what more could you ask for? Around our hotel in Mayrhofen, there are countless fantastic routes. We recently enjoyed a ski tour to the Torhelm, one of the highest peaks in the Alps at a towering 2,494 metres above sea level. Especially in spring, it offers a spectacular 360° view over the surrounding snow-capped mountains and the spring colours in the valley. From the summit, you can even make out our Kolmhaus hut in the distance! So, what are you waiting for? Strap on your skis and set off on a wonderfully liberating ski tour!
