Winter adventures away from the groomed slopes

If you love skiing but prefer to skip the hustle and bustle at the lifts and cable car stations, the Gastein valley offers ideal conditions for ski touring.

Away from the groomed slopes, sporty adventures and intense encounters with nature await those who appreciate the peaceful side of winter. Step by step, pristine ascents lead to spectacular viewpoints.

The region’s special advantage: Thanks to its favourable altitude, high-alpine ski tours are often possible well into spring. Perfect conditions for making the most of the winter season!

Intense and safe ski touring experiences

Alongside a healthy respect for nature, good preparation is the key ingredient for safe ski tours. Before setting off, always check the weather and avalanche reports, go over your chosen route and make sure you have the required safety equipment – including an avalanche transceiver, a probe and a shovel. For even greater safety, join a guided tour with an experienced mountain guide who knows the terrain and leads you through the varied landscape.
