> Hike along the mighty Dachstein in 4 days
> Stay in cozy alpine huts like Gablonzerhütte and Hofpürglhütte
> Includes the challenging Schwarzkogelsteig section (T4)
The Dachstein Rundwanderweg may sound like a loop, but this 4-day adventure actually takes you on a scenic point-to-point trek from Gosau to Filzmoos, right through the southeastern highlands of Salzburg. Along the way, you’ll walk through alpine meadows, past jagged limestone cliffs, and between some of the most iconic scenery in this corner of Austria.
You’ll overnight in authentic mountain huts such as the Gablonzerhütte, Theodor-Körner-Hütte, and Hofpürglhütte. Each day reveals a new landscape: forests, meadows, and panoramic ridgelines. On day three, the Schwarzkogelsteig adds a unique mountain moment: a narrow, exposed T4 trail that’s thrilling, but still a hut-to-hut hike with children for experienced kids with a good head for heights.
With moderate distances, good signage, and all logistics handled by us, this is the perfect trek for adventurous families who want a real alpine experience. Tough enough to feel epic, mellow enough to enjoy every step!
