Map, elevation profile & further information

Starting from St. Nikolai, hike along the road to the Hansenalm and continue to the mountain rescue hut. From here you hike right through the sparse high forest in the direction of Kaltenbachalm. Now continue straight up to the Sölkpass and the Sölkpass chapel. Return along the same path.

Parking spaces on the outskirts of St. Nikolai.
  • Snowshoes and poles with large snow plates. Also ankle-high, warm shoes, warm clothing, gloves and hat and possibly gaiters.
  • Avalanche transceiver (LVS), shovel and probe
  • Backpack with small rations and a warm drink in a thermos flask.

Mountain sports and the assessment of the situation on site is - even more so in winter - primarily your own responsibility. Tourism associations or avalanche warning services do not accept any liability based on the information provided.

With the Schladming-Dachstein Winter Walking Ticket you can use several cable-cars and chair-lifts to get to the trail heads of some of the most beautiful winter hikes.
