Cross country skiing in Bad Goisern, Gosau & Obertraun
Fit with cross country skiing
Biking, for example, uses approximately 35 per cent of our muscles, whereas cross country skiing has an impact on almost all of the body. We use about 90 per cent of our muscles, and metabolic rate is increased. Our minds benefit too from exercising in the fresh air.
