In winter, caution is advised even on seemingly easy hikes. In shady areas, the ground can be slightly icy, and there may be avalanche danger below slopes. Mountaineering is therefore primarily a matter of personal responsibility – even more so in winter. Tourist associations and avalanche warning services assume no liability whatsoever based on the information provided.

Your equipment should ideally include:
  • Ankle-high, warm shoes. Waterproof, warm shoes with a treaded sole are ideal. Optional: Gaiters for additional snow protection.
  • A hood and warm clothing, ideally layered. Don't forget a change of clothes for longer winter hikes: a wind and waterproof jacket and trousers.
  • A small backpack with a warm drink in a thermos and snacks as needed
  • Sun protection
  • Cell phone
  • First aid kit
  • Optional: crampons/snow spikes (snow chains for shoes), telescopic hiking poles for better grip and balance.
Enjoy the incredible panoramic view of the Dachstein massif.

Tour at your own risk! No liability is accepted for any alpine dangers (weather, etc.) that may occur. Weather changes, rapid drops in temperature, thunderstorms, wind, fog and snow fields are objective dangers and require the correct behaviour on the way. In an emergency, please dial the following emergency numbers:

No. 140 - for alpine emergencies - Austria-wide
No. 112 - Euro emergency call GSM emergency call service
