A winter holiday off the slope
winterACTIVE
Even the first view out of the window to the snow-covered peaks arouses anticipation every morning. While drinking your breakfast cappuccino you are planning your schedule. Wrapped up warmly and trudge through the freshly fallen snow, feeling like a child again. All the adventures, the tobogganing, the still somewhat awkward pirouettes on the ice rink, the quiet winter walks, they make you tingly with excitement.
Enjoy the idyllic natural scenery in Leogang on a cross-country ski tour, a winter hike or a ski tour. Our hotel's own toboggan run provides for action-packed moments. In the waldSPA you can end the day in peace and quiet and let it all sink in. In winter, many activities await you at the Forsthofgut, even off-piste.
Discover the vast surroundings
Winter hiking
Enjoy the winterly silence during a relaxed walk through the snowy landscape. Countless winter hiking trails around the Nature Hotel Forsthofgut are waiting for you. Along the natural winter hiking trail “Leo’s Gang” you can also observe the impressive deer of the house’s own wild animal enclosure and their graceful movements. Explore the beautiful landscape on foot or with snowshoes and enjoy your time out in the middle of nature.
On your sleds, get set and go!

On the cross-country trails
Cross-country skiing in Leogang
For a long time cross-country skiing had a dusty image: wrongly! It is wonderful to glide through lonely landscapes - and it is also an excellent whole body workout. 30 kilometers of cross-country trails are waiting in the immediate vicinity, more than 150 kilometers in the entire region around Saalfelden and Leogang. In Hochfilzen there is even a biathlon centre - only 10 minutes away from the Forsthofgut.
