Winter walking

Family-friendly

This is a cleared winter hiking trail. However, icy or slippery spots may still occur.

The winter hike to Gaistalalm starts at the paid hiking parking lot Salzbach (P3-5) in the Gaistal Valley. The well-signposted, wide trail leads directly to the alpine hut at an altitude of 1,366 meters.

Gaistalalm, a family-friendly traditional hut with a long history, operates as an active alpine farm in the summer. In winter, the surrounding landscape transforms into a sparkling mountain panorama, creating a unique experience for all the senses, complemented by hearty alpine cuisine and seasonal specialties.

On the sunny terrace, you can relax and enjoy the impressive views of the winter mountain landscape. On the way back, you can also take a rewarding detour to the nearby Hämmermoosalm (1,417 m).
