In case of snowfall, winter tires on the car are a must! Our access road will not be cleared by the community. In case of heavy snowfall, the tours are completely cancelled, for safety reasons. The snow height is best taken from the data for the Mäuseberg near Daun. Also the webcams at Daun Airfield as well as in the vincinity of Schalkenmehren are worth checking.
