Best Hikes to Hochschwab Summit

Tips

  • Here you stand on the highest mountain in the Hochschwab Group, 2,277 meters above sea level. Sit next to the large summit cross and let your gaze wander over the surrounding mountains. When the visibility is good, you have a stunning panorama.

  • If the weather cooperates you have a great view of the Hochschwab.

    Unfortunately, we were not lucky last time. At the summit, the fog remained, but after about 80 meters descent, the view was wonderful again. In addition to the fog is also still a Föhnsturm raised.
    As with any alpine tour, you must bring appropriate equipment, so that's no problem.

  • Very wind and weather prone summit. If you can see it clear of clouds, you shouldn't wait too long before climbing, because an hour later it can be overcast again! ;-)
    I know people who have been to the Schiestlhaus around 30 times (around 20 minutes below the summit), but only 3 times to the summit because the rest of the time it was shrouded in clouds or fog.
    Aja and warm clothes are also recommended - the wind makes the temperatures feel a lot cooler here! ;-)
