Description
Being only 600m of ascent, this is a great tour to do before or after work.
On a clear day, you're rewarded with stunning views of St Gilgen, Wolfgangsee and even as far as the Dachstein glacier and beyond.
This route starts at the Tiefbrunnauer parking, but it's also possible to tour up from the St Gilgen side, adding a few hundred metres more to your ascent.
At certain periods in the season, the Franzl´s Hütte at the top will be open.
Difficulty
Easy
Wide gentle slopes at around 20 degrees or less.
Low Exposure (E1)
Exposure is limited to that of the slope itself. Getting hurt is still likely if the slope is steep and/or the snow is hard.
Remoteness
Close to help in case of emergency.
