If you’re looking for true tranquility on ski tours, far from busy routes, you’ll feel at home in the Lesach Valley. Nestled between the Carnic and Gailtal Alps, Kötschach-Mauthen is a hidden gem for anyone who wants to combine nature, activity, and deceleration.
Our ski touring week is designed for connoisseurs: the tours are not technically demanding, yet they offer magnificent alpine experiences. Gentle ascents, open slopes, and quiet valleys define the region. Many tours start comfortably on forest roads leading through snow-covered high valleys before heading up to sunny alpine meadows and panoramic ridges. From the summits, the view extends—on clear days—to the Sexten and Lienz Dolomites, a true scenic highlight.
Our basecamp for the week is the legendary Loncium Beer Hotel – a place with character, perfectly suited for this relaxed ski touring holiday. This award-winning hotel with its own craft beer brewery blends alpine lifestyle with modern indulgence. After a day in the snow, you won’t find a typical wellness program here, but genuine hospitality, regional cuisine, and top-notch beer culture. During a brewery tour, we dive into the world of Loncium beers – tasting included, of course!
The cozy rooms, peaceful location, and relaxed atmosphere provide ideal conditions for unwinding. Whether by the fireplace, at the bar, or in the stylish dining room – you’ll find your personal retreat after a fulfilling day in the mountains.
