Beautiful tour from Murau through the forest to the Frauenalpen summit.

The length and the elevation gain should not be underestimated on this ski tour. In this regard, a certain level of fitness and endurance is required. However, trudging through the forest you can really enjoy the untouched nature on the Frauenalpe.
