- Description
-
This picturesque ski tour to the Dürrnbachhorn starts in Heutal in Salzburg's Saalachtal valley and leads through the Unken Heutal ski area (Natursport Heutal). You start your tour at the foot of the Wildalm lift and follow the path along the lift facilities. Passing the cosy Wildalm snack station, you reach the last ski lift in the area. Here you climb another 150 metres up to the ridge. If there is enough snow, you can continue from here to the summit of the Dürrnbachhorn, although the last section may take you through mountain pine fields.

The tour first leads along the Wildalm lifts past the Wildalm snack station to the last lift. After that, it's another 150 metres in altitude to the ridge. If there is enough snow, you can continue from here up to the Dürrnbachhorn, as otherwise it is difficult to get past the mountain pines. A fantastic ski tour with breathtaking views in the Salzburger Saalachtal.
