Cross country connection Oberstegen/Söll–Scheffau

2 villages - you fancy quiete and a very rural athmosphere - Scheffau is the place to go, or, you opt for a great variety of gastronomy and restaurants - then Söll is good to go. No matter how, your decision is always superb. The ski hiking route is purely flat, which also means it's great for everybody.
