# Verwall in Winter

Whether with cross-country skis, with snowshoes or simply as a walk: the idyllic Verwall is always worth a trip.

Whether with cross-country skis, with snowshoes or simply as a walk: the idyllic Verwall is always worth a trip.

Located above [St. Anton am Arlberg](https://www.omaela.com/en/arlberg/) towards the Arlberg Pass, the **Verwall** shows itself in its winter guise — with snow-covered trees and snow crunching underfoot, almost kitschily beautiful.

Conveniently, you'll find a car park (with a parking meter!) right at the entrance to the **Verwall** in the Moos district. Or, comfortably and sustainably, take bus line 3 to reach the starting point.

The **stroller-friendly** route first passes the heliport, then the paths split for pedestrians and **cross-country skiing enthusiasts**. The varied loipe runs 10 km with gentle climbs and descents around the Verwall reservoir; on foot you can go as far as the Wagnerhütte rest stop.

**A special highlight along the way and our favourite little spot:** the feeding station for roe deer, roebucks, stags and hinds. From a little distance, the animals can be observed freely in a protected setting.

Once you reach the [Wagnerhütte](https://www.wagnerhuette.at/), a little stop-in is a must: well fortified with cocoa, Kaiserschmarren or a hot tea, you can set off on the way back. Anyone already tired can take the Verwall bus for the return trip (until 5 p.m.). This makes the Verwall the perfect excursion when your skis need a break:

**We are certainly enthusiastic Verwall visitors!**
