The tour
The ski trail (5 hut trail in summer) is the classic access to the Ramsau alpine pastures. This trail can of course also be followed from the Türlwandhütte or Gasthof Hunerkogel (bus access RVB) to Ramsau.
Turn-by-turn directions
On ascent, you will walk through a beautiful meadow up to Gasthaus Edelbrunn, followed by forest passages and the open terrain of the alpine pasture region. Traditional mountain huts like the Dachsteinhaus, Brandalm, Austriahütte, Walcheralm and Glösalm will tempt you to stop for a little break. On this tour, you can enjoy picturesque views onto the snow-covered mountains of the Tauern mountains and the Dachstein Südwand.

Equipment
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.
