Cross-country skiing

in Pusteria Valley

Did you know that cross-country skiing uses about 600 muscles? Then it is no surprise that cross-country skiing is considered one of the healthiest sports.

Especially when you are truly in the flow, in the swing of things and the impressive winter scenery surrounding you makes you forget everything else …
