Multi-day snowshoe adventure
Multi-day snowshoe adventure
Enter the enchanting winter landscape of Austria on an unforgettable snowshoe hike that will stimulate all your senses. The adventure begins as soon as you leave civilization behind you and head into the majestic mountains. Picturesque snow-capped peaks stretch as far as the eye can see, creating a breathtaking panorama that will fill you with wonder.
Prepare for the ultimate winter hiking experience by adding snowshoes to your outfit. With every step you take, you'll feel the fresh mountain air in your lungs and the excitement of discovering untouched snow fields. Wearing snowshoes not only gives you the freedom to walk effortlessly over the thick snowpack, but also opens the door to new, untrodden paths that remain hidden from others.
The first day of this unforgettable adventure takes you into the mountains with a full backpack, on your way to a remote mountain hut where you will stay for the next three nights. Once away from the hustle and bustle, surrounded by the silence of nature, you will experience the magic of snowshoeing at its best. Your footsteps glide softly through the fresh snow, and the only sounds you hear are the crunching of the snow under your feet and the whistling of the fresh mountain wind.
In the mountain hut, simple but comfortable, you share multiple rooms with fellow adventurers. Here you will experience the hospitality of the mountain hut owner and share stories of the day as you prepare for the next day.
This snowshoe hike is guided by Nicky & Stefan, certified mountain hiking guides who share their passion for the mountains. With them by your side you are assured of a safe and informative trip, where they share not only their expertise, but also their enthusiasm for the beautiful nature around us.
In short, this snowshoe hike in Austria promises not only an adventurous holiday, but an experience that you will cherish forever.

In a beautiful mountain hut in the middle of nowhere. In this mountain hut there is a nice bed ready for you and we get a delicious breakfast & dinner every day.
What happens to my luggage?
On day 1 we go up with backpacks and all. We walk to the mountain hut in 3-4 hours. On days 2 and 3 you only have to take the 'daily' luggage with you and on day 4 we walk down again with the entire backpack.
What should I take with me?

- Waterproof jacket & trousers
- High mountain hiking boots
- 30-45 liter backpack with straps on the outside for your snowshoes
- Sticks
- Underwear for under the jacket & trousers

What are snowshoes?
Snowshoes are like tennis rackets under your shoes so you don't sink into the snow. Don't have this? Then we will arrange that for you!
What is the avalanche trinity?
This is an avalanche beacon, a probe and a shovel. This is mandatory for insurance reasons.
How do I know if I am a member of a mountain sports club?
Maybe you know the NKBV, the Dutch climbing and mountaineering association! If you are a member, you will receive a discount on this trip. The same applies to the German DAV and Austrian OAV
This late in March, is there enough snow?
The hut where we sleep is at 1800 meters, so that means that snow is guaranteed. The advantage of March is that there are many more hours of sunshine, so who knows, maybe after the tour your colleagues will ask which tropical island you went to because you got a tan.
In which language is the tour guided?
We speak Dutch, German & English and adapt the language to the group.
