Several peaks and viewpoints promise a pure panorama on this hike to Guschen. From Rohrmoos, the cable car takes you to Hochwurzen, the first peak of the day.

Guschen Summit

Highlight • Summit

A peak that is easy to reach from the Hochwurzen mountain station. The Guschen is 1,982 metres high and offers a wonderful panoramic view of the Dachstein massif and the Schladminger Tauern.

A beautiful tour with atmospheric peaks on the Rossfeld and on the Guschen. The descent from the Guschen to the valley station is long, steep and very strenuous.

With the summit lift to the Hochwurzen, then via the Guschen back to the valley station. You should be sure-footed and in good physical condition. Don't do the tour upside down, unless you want to test the limits of your condition...

A very nice, not too difficult tour. Again and again wonderful views. Of course, the view of the Dachstein massif is terrific. But the views from Roßfeld and Gutschen are also really impressive.

Since the weather was supposed to change this afternoon, we set off quite early.
We took the cable car up to Hochwurzen.
The tour began here on the Bankerlweg (banker path).
Benches of various designs line the path.
We continued on hiking trail no. 60 towards Roßfeld.
Once at the top, there are fantastic views of the surrounding mountains.

Today's tour was also more of a makeshift solution, thrown together during the sunset the previous day. The Hochwurzen cable car, located right outside our holiday apartment, once again took us to the summit for free, and we turned directly onto the so-called Bankerlweg (Bankerl Trail). This path is lined with around 20 uniquely designed benches, including some truly beautiful …

We set off this morning in light drizzle. It cleared up more and more as the day went on. From 1500m up there was still a lot of ❄️ and small wood from the onset of winter in the forest. It was another strenuous but beautiful hike 🙂.

With the 🚌 to the 🚡 and thus up. Reached the starting point. It had already cleared up below. At the top it was completely covered in fog. We then set off on the Bankerlweg to Roßfeld. At the Latterfußsattel we decided to take the sunny side of the mountain and return on the 771 path. When we got down …
