IMPORTANT: Before a ski tour/snowshoe hike, it is essential to carefully study the weather conditions and the avalanche report or consult experts, and avalanche protection equipment is mandatory!

The area around the Kreuzberg Pass and the Sesto Alpine pastures is a true paradise for snowshoe hikers and ski tourers.

Directions
The tour can be started at the Kreuzberg pass. Shortly before the Nemes Alp, the trail climbs up to the Pfandleck ridge. Up to the alpine pasture, the hike leads on a groomed, wide trail with slight ups and downs. Later, the path leads to the destination through open terrain. The route is the same for
the way there as well as for the way back. Alternatively, the hike can be continued to the Klammbach Alp.

Prerequisite: Skilled handling of avalanche equipment and experience in assessing avalanche danger required. Tours outside the prepared trails are only recommended with suffi cient alpine experience.
