Do you just want to enjoy nature away from any ski slopes during the ascent and then slide down the prepared ski slope without uncomfortable bumps? Then this ski tour in Reith im Alpbachtal is a perfect solution.

The ski tour starts at the parking lot of the Reitherkogelbahn in Reith im Alpbachtal. After putting on your touring skis, you walk west about 1 km and 130 m ascent over the field slightly uphill towards the forest road. Here, briefly walk along the hiking trail and forest edge until you reach the entrance to Kreuzweg. From here, the beautiful ski tour leads uphill through the romantic forest of Reither Kogel. At the end of Kreuzweg, you will have already mastered 500 m of ascent. From here, please follow the signs, which lead you off-trail through the Juppi Magic Forest. At the end, please cross the street and continue to the destination, the mountain station of the Hochlift.

Total ascent:

  • 3.5 km
  • 600 m ascent
  • 1.5 h

The descent leads over a well-prepared ski slope along the Reitherkogelbahn. You reach directly the base station of the Reitherkogelbahn and thus the parking lot.

As a place to stop for refreshments, the Almstüberl Gschwendt is recommended along the ski descent or the Liftcafe Heisn directly at the base station!
