Rennweg

Holiday paradise at the foot of the Katschberg
Winter paradise at the foot of the Katschberg

A true splendour of Alpine flowers and Alpine herbs give off their wonderful scents. The lovingly maintained courtyard gardens and farm garden invite you to marvel at and enjoy the floral art and tradition. No wonder, then, that these villages have several times been awarded the flower village of the year. During the summer months, motor vehicles are banned from the Pölltal so peace and fresh air are guaranteed.

A winter holiday in Rennweg means pure romance. For cross-country skiers in the snow-covered Pölltal, the motto is “Let’s head outside”. Or take a guided ski tour to the surrounding peaks. The winter hiking trails around Rennweg are particularly beautiful. The free ski shuttle takes real skiing fans up to the Katschberg Mountain and back again. And after a variety-packed day outside, a crackling fireplace is already waiting with your host. Simply wonderful!
