Enchanting Christmas markets, Christmas concerts and tranquil chapel hikes: The most contemplative time of the year becomes a special experience in the unique atmosphere of Seefeld.
The Seefeld Christmas Market invites you to stroll and enjoy the rustic huts in Tyrolean log cabin style in the Seefeld pedestrian zone. Every day from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. (on 31 December even until 1 a.m.), visitors are offered everything from culinary delicacies to regional handicrafts that is genuine and authentic. And all of this in the middle of a unique winter landscape, because due to the altitude of 1,200 metres above sea level, real winter is almost guaranteed here!
Many wonderful smells hang in the air at Christmas time. One scent brings back childhood memories that are particularly happy: Grandma’s wine noodles. Wine noodles with mulled wine are a real traditional Tyrolean dish at Christmas time that has been forgotten. Completely unjustly. This is why you can try Grandma’s secret recipe here.
When my alarm clock rings at five in the morning, I crawl out of bed and yawn at the toothbrush. Actually I am a passionate late riser, but the day’s work of a traditional Tyrolean baker begins long before the first dawn. Today an experienced family business invited me to learn some secrets of the ancient craft.
Hotel Helga is a three-star hotel in Seefeld that has been in family hands through three generations. Warmth, tradition, enjoyment and a welcome for their guests are the top priority of this family business. The tasty Tyrolean cuisine with an international influence ensures its quality with fresh ingredients from the local area. In the Christmas period the hotel guests are spoiled with a selection of seasonal biscuits from their own bakery.
The Leutasch valley has a total of 2,380 inhabitants. Two of them are Hansi and Monika “Bantl” Neuner. They represent the Leutasch area like hardly anyone else: they have their roots in this area and put in a lot of effort to ensure others also get to know this beautiful place. It is they who are responsible for events like the Leutasch Chapel Advent. Hansi told us about their life and work in Leutasch.

A tobogganing hill and a varied range of activities outdoors ensure some very special moments.
