Ski Tour to the Hinterer Kitzkogel (3,059 m)

General description

Difficult ski tour

Time of the year: the whole winter

Refreshment stop: Schönau inn

Route description

Starting at the Timmelsbrücke bridge, follow the access path to the Timmelsalm Alpine pasture. As the trail flattens out, cross the torrent and continue to the left into the wide valley. To begin with, the path is rather steep, but then levels out. Bear right as you approach a steep slope, before coming to a plateau. Follow it around from behind, before negotiating the steep climb leading to an exposed ridge on the summit.

Descent: Follow the same route back down into the valley.
