White as snow Winter activities in Tirol. The snowpack glistens<br />

and sparkles in coruscating sunlight, trees, fields and house roofs<br />

are cloaked in a brilliant white blanket of snow, a profound stillness<br />

permeates the landscape – winter in Tirol, it is a very special season<br />

which for atmospheric images and romantic ambiente can hardly be<br />

beaten. For real sports freaks, on the other hand, Tirol’s icy period<br />

means “time for action!” After all, since Tirol’s five glaciers have<br />

more or less ignored the march of the seasons, one winter opening<br />

follows another and snowboarders and ski freaks can finally go crazy<br />

on the slopes living out their passion. Such magnificence! While the<br />

ski circus provides its own brand of stimulations, cross country skiers<br />

and winter hikers enjoy their own quiet rounds, while sledders<br />

giggle their merry way down the joyful runs. And soon it is time for a<br />

quiet, intimate and cosy stopover for a mug of Christmas punch and<br />

the aroma of Lebkuchen honeycakes in the Advent season, which is<br />

lovingly celebrated in Tirol at the Christkindl Markets and in traditional<br />

customs.<br />
