Snowshoeing by car - a few things to look out for!
- Good winter tires are an absolute MUST!
- Ice scraper, snow broom, de-icer for the door locks and a small shovel are part of the basic equipment.
- Put snow chains and a tow rope in the car, even if you are not good with them yourself. There are always helpful and knowledgeable hikers on the mountain!
- Clear all snow and ice from the car, especially the roof.When parking, make sure that you also leave space for other drivers.
- Always park in such a way that the rest of the road remains clear for cars, timber trucks and snow clearing vehicles.
- Find out about the snow situation on the access road or parking facilities before setting off. (Hüttenwirt, webcams)
Variant: the descent via the summer trail to the west is partly steep and reserved for experienced snowshoe hikers only.
