Description
<p>The Dachstein-Tauern touring region is a mountain landscape that offers ski touring opportunities for every taste thanks to its diversity. In the Osterhorn group and the mountains of the Salzkammergut, open alpine meadows with often ideal powder snow beckon above the forest belt - destinations that can often already be tackled in high winter. The Dachstein massif offers a wide range of possibilities in a magnificent high mountain landscape. Challenging high-altitude ski tours such as the ascent of the Dachstein summit can be found, as well as generous bypasses with gentle slopes and magnificent views. The Gosaukamm also attracts visitors with racy steep descents in the spring firn.</p><p>The author Sepp Brandl drew on his decades of experience in ski mountaineering for this guide. He presents 50 particularly rewarding ski tours, which he describes so precisely that you can find your way around even without any knowledge of the area. Numerous variants further expand the tour options.</p><p>Exact ascent descriptions, tour maps with marked routes at an ideal scale of 1:50,000 as well as fact sheets with information on valley towns and starting points, altitude differences and walking times, requirements, avalanche risk and slope orientation, favorable season and refreshment stops make it easier to select and plan the routes and find your way around the mountain. This Rother ski touring guide also contains tips for safe and nature-friendly behavior when touring as well as information on how to get there by train and bus. Numerous color photos illustrate the guide and give the user an excellent impression of the region.</p
