Winter sports in the Maltatal– So varied is the winter holiday in the Maltatal –
The snow crunches under your skis as you gaze towards your destination and one of the imposing peaks of the Maltatal. Fresh powder snow sprays in all directions as you descend the still untouched morning slope. The massive ice cracks under the ice axe and gives you the necessary grip to climb up the impressive waterfall a little further.
Whatever it is that makes your winter sportsman’s heart beat faster – in the Maltatal there are a multitude of action-packed possibilities to satisfy your inner urge to move even during the cold season.

Climbing Valley Maltatal
A paradise for ice climbers
If you don’t want to give up your beloved climbing sport even in winter, the Maltatal is the best place to go. There are numerous ice climbing hotspots that make your fingertips tingling on arrival.
The “valley of falling waters” is well known to every ice climber and is especially famous for its versatility. Most of the waterfalls are easily accessible and avalanche safe in normal snow conditions. Professionals get their money’s worth here, as do those climbers who are on the ice for the first time. On request, the Maltatal also offers the possibility of being introduced to the world of ice climbing by an expert.
