Tour description

A high-altitude trail with pure panoramic views – the Pinzgauer Spaziergang trail offers breathtaking views of over thirty majestic three-thousand-metre peaks and is one of the most beautiful high-altitude trails in the Eastern Alps.

The route begins at Schmittenhöhe near Elisabethkapelle chapel and leads over Kettingtörl to Pinzgauer Hütte, along the Hahnkopflift over Kettingkopf and below the ridge to Hochsonnbergalm. It continues to the Rohrertörl, below the Niederen Gernkogel, to the signpost with descent options to Niedernsill. There are only a few huts along the route, and to reach them, it is usually necessary to deviate slightly from the main path – therefore, it is essential to take sufficient provisions with you.

From Klingertörl, there are various options: descent via Hacklbergalm to Hinterglemm, continuation via Saalbachkogel and Stemmerkogel to Schattberg, or longer tours to Medalkogel and Bürglhütte with overnight accommodation.
