Wonderful ski tour via the Heilbronn Cross to the Gjaid Alm

Ski tour in breathtaking winter landscape

From the mountain station of the Dachstein Krippenstein cable car in Obertraun you go direction Margschierf. Soon you will reach the Heilbronn Cross and finally reach the Gjaid Alm at 1 805m. The walking time is about 3 hours

From the valley station of section III you can then ski down the prepared slope to the starting point.

Inexperienced and not local knowledgeable people are strongly recommended to join a mountain guide or a local guide. Although the Dachstein plateau is easily accessible by cable car, please remember that you are in high alpine terrain and that the weather can change at any time.

Please pay attention to the weather forecast, all tours should only be undertaken when visibility is good. It should be a must to bring emergency equipment (avalanche transceiver, avalanche probe, shovel, first aid kit and a cell phone)!

Well advised you are under:
