Description

This beautiful winter’s walk leads up through snowy woods from the Völser Weiher Lake to the Tuff and Hofer Alpl mountain hut. Given that the walk begins at the Völser Weiher Lake, you can also make the most of the opportunity to strap on your skates and take a spin around the lake.

Directions

Follow the path no. 1 or 1B, passing by the Huber Weiher lake, in sweeping curves through the forest until the Tuff mountain hut where the view opens out onto snowy Alpine meadows and the surrounding mountains. 
This hike can also be extended to the Hofer Alpl mountain hut. This route leads along a winter hiking trail which is not groomed (please follow the advices provided on p. 5). The descent from the Hofer Alpl mountain hut leads down a leisurely forest trail until the main street in direction Völs. Shortly after the Funtnatscherhof farm turn right and follow the path back to the Völser Weiher lake.
You can also take the opportunity to strap on your ice skates and take a spin round on the Völser Weiher lake.
