- Description
-
The ski tour from the Mitterbergsattel over the extensive southern slope at the foot of the Mandlwände is a worthwhile, panoramic ski tour in powder snow and firn. Depending on ability and conditions, the tour ends on the four-channel sands at approx. 2100 m or directly in one of the "four-channel embrasures" at approx. 2300 m.
Short, sunny ski tour below the Mandlwände. Due to the low difference in altitude (approx. 600 m) and the favourable exposure (S - S0), this is also a worthwhile destination for less experienced ski mountaineers. Towards the top, the slope becomes steeper and steeper, maximum steepness approx. 35°. Please note the strong solar radiation and the resulting snow conditions. Ideal spring tour if you leave early in the morning.

Ascend from the Arthurhaus to the north-east on the summer path towards Mitterfeldalm and, behind a small wood, northwards over the Vierrinnensandn into the narrow and increasingly steep cirque under the Vierrinnenköpfe. Finally, very steeply into the left or right branch of the cirque to the end point.
