Winter like you've never experienced it before: immerse yourself in the most beautiful time of the year in St Johann

There are places where time passes more slowly, places that radiate a warmth all of their own in the cold of the winter months – just like St. Johann. The first snow falls softly and covers the landscape in a brilliant white blanket. This soft white, the glittering frost on the fir trees and the play of sunlight quickly turn winter into magic.

Imagine plunging into the clear, cold mountain air on a still winter's morning. It is this fresh cold that wakes you up, tickles your face and sharpens your senses. You hear the crunch of snow under your shoes, feel the tranquillity of the snow-covered forests and sense how everyday life falls away from you. Suddenly the world seems to stand still and all that remains is the moment - undisturbed, unforgettable.

Winter in St. Johann is a feast for all the senses. Perhaps it's the first tracks in the fresh snow that make their way down the slope, the soft whooshing of skis over the velvety frozen slope or the unbridled joy of a toboggan run, the laughter and shouts that echo through the clear air. Winter gives us moments that make us feel like children again - moments full of lightness and joy.

And when evening falls, you are drawn into one of the cosy parlours, where the warmth of the fire envelops you. A cup of tea in your hands, your hands warmed by the cold and the soft crackling of the fire - that's the feeling that makes winter here so special. It is a cosiness that can be felt deep inside, a kind of security that only winter can give.

After a day in the clear, cold mountain air, returning to the warmth feels like a hug. You lean back, look out into the sparkling winter landscape and suddenly the hustle and bustle of life seems so far away. As night falls and the stars shine in the sky, a sense of calm spreads like a promise, a promise that the beauty of the moment will remain and that winter here is only be experienced, but deeply felt.

In St. Johann in Salzburg, you can experience winter in all its splendour - in the quiet magic of snow-covered forests and warming moments by the fireplace. Here, winter is not just a backdrop, but an experience that appeals to all the senses.

And if you want to discover the active side of winter, the “Xund und Fit” winter activity programme in St. Johann offers you a versatile addition.
