Ramsau am Dachstein

Snowshoeing Tour Dureggrunde

Tour description

Far away from civilization, you will explore the most beautiful and comfortable walks on your snowshoes. Immersing yourself into a deeply snowed-in mountain world, you will hear the crisp sound of snow with every step you take into this pristine natural landscape. Here, you will follow the old paths the minors used hundreds of years ago: untouched, natural, unique.

The more exposed the route is, the more familiar you need to be with the area. You will also require good mountaineering knowledge to be able to handle the high-alpine terrain.
