Winter sports fans will enjoy trails in the hills and mountains ranging from short trips for beginners to strenuous routes for fit, experienced ski-mountaineers. Snow-shoe trips are a great way to spot tracks left by animals, while a gentler option is a trip by horse-drawn sleigh. After the cold outdoors, enjoy the night in a warm guesthouse heated by traditional wood-burning stoves, with good home-cooking and local plum brandy.
