The valley basin and the adjoining, softly sloping, forested mountain sides covered in snow, are a breathtaking image.A leisure time highlight, close to nature, is ice-skating on the huge mountain lakes round about the villages. On Europe's largest natural ice rink, the Weissen Lake, you can enjoy a multitude of activities in winter. he frozen lake measures 6.5 km² and hosts sports, such as ice hockey, ice-skating curling and even ice golf.
