Nice snow shoeing tour over meadows and through forest on the sunny plateau of Vorberg.
This snow shoeing tour connects two areas called "Vorberg". You start off at Pichl-Vorberg and walk through the Wolfsschlucht gorge to reach Ramsau-Vorberg. Although two different areas, one thing stays the same: "Vorberg" is always a sunny place.

More information

Exit from federal highway B320 in Pichl and continue on Vorbergstraße road towards Pichl-Vorberg. Pass by Hotel Steirerhof and then make a right to reach the Brandstätterhof farm.
Starting from the Brandstätterhof farm (near the hiking trail head Vorberg-Steirerhof) you make your way East on the so-called "Lochweg" along the edge of the forest. After a short section through the forest you reach the Vorbergstraße in Ramsau. You pass by the "Unterer Drachenlift" ski lift at the edge of the forest and then continue to the right where you again cross Vorbergstraße road. Via a yellow-marked (summer) trail you walk back to your starting point.
On snow shoes you have the advantage of not needing a trail all the time. However, out of respect for wildlife and its resting areas you should not just walk cross-country as you like.
The starting point can be reached with the ski bus - bus stop "Brandstätterhof".
The closest publich parking is available at the hiking trail head Vorberg-Arnika (about 10 walking minutes away).
