Hütteneck ski & snowshoe tour

Wonderful tour to the Hütteneckalm with marvellous views of the Dachstein.

Ski or snowshoe tour with panorama

The over two-hour tour (one direction with a break) starts at the upper Predigstuhl car park at the shelter with information board near the Lesehotel, which is easily accessible by car via the toll-free panoramic road. Good winter tyres are recommended.

A little fitness is an advantage.
Follow the yellow markings at a leisurely pace, after just a few steps you will reach the first turn-off.
Keep left, from here the trail turns right shortly afterwards into the snow-covered winter forest.
Follow the markings"Hüttenecktour". The path now leads slightly uphill through dense forests until you reach the Rossmoosalm area after about 30 minutes.

When crossing the snow-covered alpine pasture with its snow-covered alpine huts, you can already catch the first views of the Dachstein Glacier and the surrounding mountain ranges.
Keep right, past the upper alpine hut and you will now reach the next marker.
In another 15 minutes slightly uphill you will already be at the next fork in the path.
On the left is the "Kleine Rosenkogelrunde" marker.

Following to the right and after a clearing, you now reach a somewhat steeper short section, which leads you through the snowy winter forest again and again.
And then it's there - the Zwerchwand with the Mini Matterhorn including summit cross!
Follow the markings below the wall and cross it.

Here you can enjoy a breathtaking view over the Goiserer Valley, the Hallstättersee to the Dachstein.
After another last steep section you will reach the Dachstein after approx. 15 minutes you will reach the snow-covered alpine pasture of the Hütteneckalm.

At Alpengasthaus Hütteneck of the Peinsteiner family at 1.240 m above sea level and its nearby "Sisi Salettl" awaits you once again with this amazing view of the World Heritage Region. Please note the Winter opening hours (only on weekends until approx. mid-March)
