Winter hiking from Dienten to Steinbockalm

Winter hiking from Dienten to Steinbockalm

Your winter hike to the Gabühelhütte and Steinbockalm starts at the toboggan run, which leads you to the Grünegg Alm. The path is perfectly prepared and offers you the opportunity to fully enjoy the fresh mountain air and the winter landscape. Once you arrive at the Grünegg Alm, the prepared winter hiking trail continues towards Filzensattel/Gabühel. Take path No. 50, which initially leads you across the ski slope. Be careful and watch out for skiers while crossing – concentration is required here! After a short time, you reach the fork at Gabühel/Filzensattel. Here you take path No. 51 uphill towards the Gabühelhütte and Steinbockalm. On this section, you have to cross the ski slope again to follow the prepared path. If you prefer it quieter, choose the forest path with the yellow signage to the Gabühelhütte – here you experience nature up close. Follow the normal path and you reach the upper station of the Gabühelbahn. Keep left and continue hiking to the Steinbockalm. The ascent is rewarded with a breathtaking panoramic view of the valley and the majestic Hochkönig. This is the perfect spot for a well-deserved break and some stunning photos! For the return, simply take the same route so you can enjoy the beauty of the landscape once more. If you prefer a more relaxed descent, you can also choose the descent with the 10-person Gabühel cable car – tickets are available directly from the cable car.
