Snowshoe Trail 2: Alberfeldkogel (1.709m)

The following tours lead through alpine terrain and may only be negotiated with the proper equipment. During storms or when there is a risk of avalanches, the snowshoe trails are closed! The tour stars right beside the information board ath the mountain statio. At first, the hike leads along the inns, past the Alpine lodge village "Hüttendorf" heading west. At the valley station of the Heumahdgupf T-bar lift, you'll cross the mountain slope (heading south). After a few minutes, you'll reach the dip between the front and rear Edeltal valley. Further on, follow the course of the valley (Alberfeldkogel sign). Before leading down into Edeltal valley, the trail turns in a nothern direction here. Following an old ski slop, you now ascend into the valley between Heumahdgupf and Alberfeldkogel. Having reached the northern faces of the "Höllengebirge", you now follow a ridge heading north-west to a plateau (Caution in poor visibility!). Heading across the little plateau the trail leads to the last short ascent up to the peak of the Alberfeldkogel (1.709m), one of the most scenic viewpoints in Northern Salzkammergut!
