The local mountain of the Arthur-von-Schmid-Haus is a beautiful three-thousand metre mountain with great views and a challenging via ferrata to the mighty Säuleck.

The rock glacier at the head of the picturesque Dösental valley near Mallnitz is one of the largest of its kind. What at first glance looks like a field of rubble turns out on closer inspection to be a stream of debris and ice, which - like other glaciers - flows down into the valley.

Walking time: 6:00h

High alpine mountain crossing of the Reißeck group. Allow a minimum of 8-9 hours for the entire route. For the ascent and descent from the two starting points (mountain huts), another half day should be planned for each.

Magnificent, high-altitude via ferrata to the "Tauern Queen" Hochalmspitze. A long, high-alpine undertaking - more of a high-altitude tour than a via ferrata in the narrower sense. Safe walking on snowfields is just as important as mastering grade I-II climbing passages without steel rope protection.

Walking time: 7:00h

In five days 65km and almost 5000 metres through the Hohe Tauern!
