Cool air, snow-covered orchards, gentle rays of sunshine...
When it gets quiet around the 7 villages and the top of the Luisenhöhe glistens in gentle white, then winter moves into Vitalwelt. While many enjoy the peace and quiet to relax in the spa, others spend time in the fresh air.
In winter, too, there is a lot of work to be done in the orchards. The motto is: "Get to the branches! During the winter months, the farmers trim the branches of the apple and pear trees. Pruning is a very important task for the cider growers and an essential prerequisite for the successful cultivation of an orchard. This is also the start of the new cider year, so to speak!
In addition, fruit schnapps is traditionally distilled in winter.
The Nativity Scene Trail in Geboltskirchen is waiting to be walked until the beginning of February. The 1.6 kilometre long tour starts at the Ölerhaus. The walk is particularly beautiful in the evening, as the 17 nativity scenes are illuminated from 5 to 9 pm. The floating cot at the Mayrhuberteich is of course also illuminated. The nativity scenes on display come from the workshops of the Upper Austrian Nativity School.
Nature is at rest, but our landscape presents itself as incomparably beautiful. The Vitalwelt is also a true highlight in the winter months. Get some fresh air, enjoy the gentle rays of the sun and the breathtaking view. Simply wonderful, isn't it? What's more, the Vitalwelt is also a perfect photo motif in winter. See for yourself and start your winter hike in the 7 villages of the holiday region.
