Willisau and its region in winter
In the cold season Willisau has to offer a lot as well, the seasonal fairs, the atmospheric Christmas market or the crazy carnival days. The cultural offerings in Willisau and in the whole region are especially ample in this season. The possibilities for sports activities are manifold, too, indoors and outdoors.
Calmness and recreation can be found, wandering on the foothills of the Napf, which are often free from fog in autumn and winter as well. Bikers like practising their demanding hobby in these seasons especially. Those who have achieved the ascension onto the car-free Napf, can`t expect a sweeping ski-run descent. But whoever has enjoyed the unique view from this summit on a sunny winter day, will return again and again.

From the lowlands of the Wigger valley, the dreamy little valleys and forests to the crests of the Napf area unadulterated nature can be enjoyed. Museums, historical village centres and cultural sites make an excursion worthwhile.
