    Schöne Runde, allerdings haben wir deutlich länger gebraucht. Am Anfang ist ein Weg gesperrt, da mussten wir einen kleinen Umweg machen. Badehose nicht vergessen, am Wasserfall kann mal sich erfrischen :)

    A good challenging hike, accessible without car from downtown Salzburg. Great views of the town and surrounding area. Lovely hut at the top to warm up! (Hiked in November, no snow).

    Hab die Wanderung als Sonnenaufgangswanderung gemacht und es war ein großartiges, einzigartiges Erlebnis, dass ich nur jedem empfehlen kann. Es ist nicht so touristisch überlaufen, sondern man begegnet nur vereinzelt Einheimischen, die den Nockstein als ihr Sportprogramm machen :-) Der Ausblick war unfassbar schön, über den Tälern lagen noch Nebelfelder.

    Kurze, aber durchaus technisch und konditionell anspruchsvolle Wanderung. Aufstieg durch die Nocksteinschlucht ist zu empfehlen. Wir haben für den Abstieg dann einen anderen Weg etwas östlich vom Gipfel gewählt, da dieser dafür besser geeignet ist.

    Danke fürs Hochladen! Echt eine tolle Tour, vor allem das letzte Stück vor dem Gipfel ist traumhaft schön (dafür auch steil und teilweise rutschig).
