Experience untouched Winter splendour

Untouched, sparkling and crystal clear. Winter in the Pitztal Valley of the Tyrol is uniquely beautiful. Soft cowls of snow cover the roofs. Woodland and meadows lie still and covered under the white magic. Only the stream still bubbles its way under the winter sunshine.

You have the inclination to strap on the snow shoes and get to know the wonderful winter world all round your Organic Hotel in the Pitztal Valley of the Tyrol near to the Pitztal Glacier, before you start off the next day to enjoy skiing pleasure in Austria’s highest Glacier Ski Arena with 100% ski guarantee or in the Lake Rifflsee Ski Arena in the vicinity of your Organic Hotel Tyrol. The relaxing Skiing Vacation in the Pitztal Valley of the Tyrol.

Right in the centre of a winter paradise: your organic hotel at Stillebach

Touring skiers, winter hikers and walkers and cross-country skiers can enjoy the idyllic scenery away from the ski runs during their Winter Vacation in the Pitztal Valley of the Tyrol and wonder at the beauty of a sunny winter day. The air and the glittering snow cover seem to be crystalline. The water falls are frozen over and only the brave try out ice climbing and scrambling in the Pitztal Valley. Touring skiers recognise a welcome challenge on the Wildspitze Tour, which they master under the leadership of skilled mountain guides. The cross-country skiing courses and the skating runs begin directly in front of your Organic Hotel Tyrol, when you can explore the whole of the Pitztal Valley.

It will be peaceful and romantic during guided torchlight tours over the paths of the winter hiking- and walking runs all round your Organic Hotel in the Pitztal Valley of the Tyrol, or a sleigh rise together through the fairytale winter night.

What could be better after a glorious day in the fresh winter air, and more beneficial than relaxation and regeneration in the sauna bath and the infrared cabin? Because warmth and coziness are so important for us in winter, we invite you to take advantage of our SPA facilities.

There are also beautiful touring destinations in the direct vicinity of the Biohotel, such as the Rosskopf, 2,305 meters.

Ice climbing

The Pitztal Valley enjoys an excellent reputation among ice climbers. The 45 waterfalls in the Pitztal Valley freeze to impressive icefalls during winter and offer numerous climbing trails. Ice climbing is an activity for beginners, too! The Eis Total Festival, which is run by professional mountain guides, is the perfect opportunity to get a taste of what's on offer. The easily accessible Taschach Gorge or the Kitzgarten Gorge offer ice climbing routes of varying degrees of difficulty. There are also two popular ice-climbing spots in Stillebach directly behind the Biohotel: Klockefall and Luibis.
