WINTER

The character of the Mühlviertel is more apparent in winter than in any other season. The snow that covers the granite land emphasizes the rugged charm of the landscape. At the same time, it dampens all sounds, thus focusing the senses on peace and deceleration. The Mühlviertler Granitland is a region that sets locals and guests alike in motion. Cross-country ski trails run between and over the hills, and snowshoe hikers leave their incomparable tracks. Ice skaters whiz and curling stones glide on the ponds.Only one thing is important: to find peace again after sports. For example, in a cozy, warm inn. Here it smells of classic roast pork, grilled ribs, or baked bacon dumplings. The host serves a foamy beer specialty, which owes its taste to the purity of the primeval rock water.It is the power of tranquility that lies over winter in the Mühlviertler Granitland. When the sun sinks blood-red over snow-covered hills at a viewpoint, the certainty simultaneously arises that everyday life is far away.
