Hohe Kreuzspitze Mountain Ski Tour at 2,740 m

General description

Time of the year: Throughout winter

Avalanche risk: Snow boarders should be on the look out for snow slabs at the Schartl steep slope!

Route description

Take the forest road leading towards the Untere Gostalm mountain hut (1,856 m). Just before the hut, keep right at the bridge and then climb through a sparse forest. Soon after there’s a wide flat section and then the wide bends lead to a junction from which there’s the last steep climb. Follow the trail from Ratschings/Racines, across the ridge then descend to the right, before climbing the last stretch up to the nearby summit.

Descent: Same as ascent, with beautiful wide slopes for skiing down into the valley.
