Schattwald - Zöblen - Schattwald

The winter hike begins at the Schattwald Dorfplatz bus stop. From there, the path initially leads towards the church. After reaching the church
it continues to the right into the snowy district of Fricken. The cleared winter hiking trail leads through the town and onwards to Zöblen to the local church. About 50 meters further east, the path turns right behind the Hotel Alpenrose, crosses the main road, and runs parallel to it until the town exit. From there, it returns to the path towards Fricken. Shortly after the Zöblen town sign, the path leads left along the wintry Vils back to Schattwald to the starting point.

Modern and well-maintained equipment (shoes, poles, and clothing) not only provides a significant amount of safety but also makes winter hiking much easier. Sun protection (high protection factor and possibly sunglasses) as well as sufficient fluids should not be forgotten.

It should be noted that there is an increased risk of accidents and injuries during winter hiking as well. In winter, particular attention must be paid to the condition of the paths. Suitable clothing, good footwear, and possibly hiking poles provide additional safety. Stay on the marked paths.
