Dopplersteig Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Beautiful climb with numerous steps and deep views. It's a lot of fun if you have sure-footedness and a head for heights. I think is one of the most beautiful of the black-marked climbs.

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what prompted people to erect“ their ”cross at this point. (...) These crossroads have been erected as visible signs and attract the looks of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who overcame death (...). The cross is part of our life, just as it was part of the life of Jesus. So I wish that many people ... visit the crossroads, whether as places of silence and breathing before God, whether as places of congregation meeting, prayer and praise of God. "
(Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig
in: "Crosses of the way ... Small sacred monuments as a sign of popular piety")

Hochalm at Geiereck

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Hochalm is only a few meters away from the Geiereck. The perfect place to catch your breath after climbing the summit. Apple strudel and a fantastic view, what more could you ask for?

You can even stay overnight at the hut. There are 20 beds in a small dormitory. Be sure to register beforehand!

Geiereck Summit Cross

Highlight • Summit

Great views and an imposing metal cross. Binoculars permanently installed there can help to see all the peaks in the distance

Reitsteig Trail

Highlight • Trail

The Reitsteig runs parallel to the Dopplersteig and is somewhat less technical. In the lower part, the Reitsteig is very steep, but easy to walk on with beams and stairs. Suspended passages with insurance are added in the upper part. No problem in summer but only feasible for very sure-footed and experienced winter mountaineers in winter, as it is very icy and insurance cannot be used (buried under snow / ice).

September 12, 2022,Von Glanegg über Dopplersteig zum Salzburger Hochthron und Abstieg über Reitsteig

Is a challenging climb with an incredibly great view. We climbed straight through to the Hochthron and took the Geiereck with us on the way back. Before we made the descent over the Reitsteig we strengthened ourselves at the Zeppezauer house with a delicious curd cheese strudel and a sparkling Stiegl. The descent was very slippery for the first few …

Awesome tour today from Glanegg via the Dopplersteig to the Hochthron... A wonderful tour that demands your own skills and equipment. A head for heights and sure-footedness is a must on the black marked paths and not a can. It was a lot of fun and we will do that again, but if we exceed it, then to Maria Gern …
