Winter in the Berchtesgaden mountains has its own rhythm. As the days get shorter and colder, the first snow falls and the rocky flanks around the Watzmann massif turn white, the world is shrouded in silence. The “Huberbuam” use this tranquil time to practise on the accordion, prepare for the hunting exam and go on a winter’s climb together with aspiring mountain guide Steno Pfnür. Moni Lenz, menawhile goes in search of tracks in the snow with her daughter. Closeness to nature is what keeps the locals from leaving.
