Ice Skating on Obersee & Untersee
In winter, when temperatures allow, both the Obersee and Untersee naturally freeze over, transforming into expansive, scenic ice-skating rinks. This provides a truly authentic alpine ice experience, often accompanied by local stalls selling warm drinks and snacks. The Obersee usually hosts a larger, more structured area suitable for both recreational skating and occasional ice hockey matches, while the Untersee offers a more natural, serene setting. Ice skate rentals are available at several sports shops in the village. Access to the natural ice rinks is usually free, though some specific groomed areas might have a small fee. Conditions depend on natural ice thickness, so checking local information is advised.
