Any adventure is just a decision away.

Ski touring in the Gastein Valley

A ski touring hotspot

The Gastein Valley has plenty of ski touring routes for those who enjoy going up as well as down. Bad Gastein is the starting point for a number of tours up to the Graukogel and Stubnerkogel. Dorfgastein is also a popular place from which to explore the Fulseck on skis. On certain days of the week, visitors can even hike along the slopes at night, on full-moon tours for example.

Alpine power to the top

More and more people are choosing ski touring over the classic slopes. The feeling you get on reaching a peak after putting in so much effort is simply indescribable. You are also closer to nature than ever before and can immerse yourself fully in the winter scenery. The smooth rhythm of gliding and climbing strengthens the muscles and cardiovascular system and increases fitness. Combined with the perfect tranquillity and unspoiled landscape, it also reduces stress and has a liberating effect on the soul. Breathtaking views and a snack at the summit are the icing on your ski touring cake and make it all worthwhile. Afterwards, enjoy the release of endorphins as you ski down pristine powder-snow slopes. The 40km long Gastein Valley offers snow-covered mountainsides left and right that invite you to enjoy unforgettable ski touring and downhill skiing in powder snow.

Ski touring for beginners

Beginners should stick to the easy, well-signposted tours which are specifically for newcomers:

Skitour Stubneralm – S1
This tour starts at the end of the B11 ski run near the Angertal 1180 ski restaurant. 3.6km of wonderful forest touring await, with 20 signs to guide you along the way. After a 640m elevation gain, you reach the rustic Stubneralm – perfect for some well-earned refreshment.
Zirbenroas Graukogel – S2
Start at the Graukogel cable car midway station, or from the valley station if snow conditions are right. The 1.5km long Zirbenroas takes you through stunning forest, where you conquer a 500m elevation gain. At the finish you are rewarded by the delights of the Graukogelhütte mountain hut, as well as a fantastic view over the Gastein Valley.

The team at DAS ALPENHAUS Gasteinertal is always available to advise you and help you plan or book your tour.

Happiness is free but priceless.
