About this experience
The first rays of the sun fall on the mountain walls and paint them red. Virgin white snow bleeps under your footsteps, the only thing you hear. You breathe in the sharp, fresh air and breathe out cold smoke. Tempted?
Experience the beauty of the snowy Julian Alps and take a winter hike with us.
