With only a few ascents it is perfectly suited for cross-country skiing beginners. The trail is sign posted by red signs. The 5-kilometre Kugelberg Trail comprises a classic cross-country skiing run and a skating trail and is illuminated by floodlights from the onset of dusk until 9pm every day. This trail originates at the sports ground of the local school. The whole 55-kilometre network of cross-country skiing trails in Faistenau comprises perfectly groomed cross-country skiing runs with difficulty levels ranging from easy to intermediate. Your cross-country skiing expedition starts at the sports ground (cross country skiing stadium) in the village. The trail will take you along the edge of the village to the beautiful Tiefbrunnauer Valley. The cross-country skiing runs are located in sunny areas and do not boast major differences in altitude. Beginners we recommend to start at the parking Nr. 3 or 4 in Tiefbrunnau, because here are the trails widely flat.
