More information

In winter, caution is advised even on seemingly easy hikes. In shady areas, the ground can be slightly icy, and there may be avalanche danger below slopes. Mountaineering is therefore primarily a matter of personal responsibility – even more so in winter. Tourist associations and avalanche warning services assume no liability whatsoever based on the information provided.

Your equipment should ideally include:

Ankle-high, warm shoes. Waterproof, warm shoes with a treaded sole are ideal. Optional: Gaiters for additional snow protection.
A hood and warm clothing, ideally layered. Don't forget a change of clothes for longer winter hikes: a wind and waterproof jacket and trousers.
A small backpack with a warm drink in a thermos and snacks as needed
Sun protection
Cell phone
First aid kit
Optional: crampons/snow spikes (snow chains for shoes), telescopic hiking poles for better grip and balance.

You can take the skibus from Gröbming in the winter holiday time.
