Tour description

Nice tour with refreshment stop at Enzianhütte (during the day and in the evening) on a secured slope. Lighter variant throuh a  wooded area.

The tour to the Ronachkopf is a scenic and easy route with panoramic views of the Schmittenhöhe, the Hohe Tauern and Zell am See. 

You can walk through the forest in the middle section if there is enough snow. This is easier than on the piste.

The innkeeper at the Enzianhütte treats hungry winter sports enthusiasts to local delicacies.

Depending on the snow situation, the tour can be enjoyed from the beginning of December to mid-April and still offers a snow-reliable descent down to the valley in spring.
