Die Schanze - Zuhause im Schnee

Schnee - das ursprüngliche Element, aus dem sich die Schanze erhebt. Zentral im Skiliftkarussell war sie vor rund 60 Jahren die Keimzelle des Skigebietes.

Habt einen schönen Ski- oder Wandertag im Schnee. Wir sind gut über die Sesselbahnen und den Übungsliften am Herrloh erreichbar. Auf euch warten wärmende oder erfrischende Getränke. Und gegen euren Hunger haben wir dann auch etwas frisch Gekochtes von unserem Küchenteam.
