Ski tour Hochalmspitze
From Haus Alexander along the edge of the ski slope past an old stable building towards the middle station. Below the Sonnhof Alpenoase, turn right to a barn above the valley station of the Hochalm 6er. Cross the piste here and continue straight ahead a little steeper along the right edge of the ski piste to the crossroads above the Hinterreichkendlhütte, which is not open to the public.
Now you can see two alpine huts on the right, from where you continue over open terrain to the Hochalmspitze (1921 m) .
Depending on your ability, you can choose to descend via the ski piste or over open terrain.
Although this is a relatively safe tour, the equipment and experience necessary for ski touring is still required.
Ascent: approx. 2 hrs | 780 hm
Winter hike Reiterkogel-Rosswaldhütte
From the house Alexander first to the main road, here over the bridge and on the promenade to Hinterglemm.
From the center of the village with the Reiterkogelbahn to the middle station. Get off at the top on the left and walk past the Wieseralm along the winter hiking trail to the cozy Rosswaldhütte. Allow around 1 hour for the descent into the valley and then another ½ hour back to Haus Alexander.
This hike is also recommended in the opposite direction for fit hikers.
This tour is particularly recommended in fine weather , as you are in the sun almost all the time.
