Gentle steps through a winter wonderland - many have already discovered this special winter pleasure for themselves
Snow covered mountains and forests, white, undisturbed, glistening white snow - all this is yours to discover whilst snow shoeing in the Inner Salzkammergut. There are many traditional, rustic mountain huts throughout the Dachstein region where you can stop off and relax whilst enjoying some traditional, home-cooked fare.
Winter walking in the Dachstein Salzkammergut Region
Lots of snow, peaceful high valleys and mountain peaks, an unbelievably beautiful landscape and functional, modern equipment. These are all the ingredients for a magical winter adventure in tranquil surroundings. There is hardly a sound to be heard as you "stamp" your way in your snow shoes through this snow-filled winter wonderland.
The area:The vast Dachstein massif is the gateway to two different worlds: the first is the dream- like winter landscape with forests of Swiss pine and massive rock formations. Then there is the vast, legendary Hallstatt glacier - the largest in the northern lime stone Alps.
