Selected alternatives for you
    Northern Hesse also has something to offer for ski tourers: two nice descents in easy terrain.

    The route naturally lacks the characteristics of an alpine ski tour – no avalanche risk, no steep slopes, and no hairpin turns! Therefore, it is probably better to speak of a ski hike, which does not overwhelm a beginner but still offers experiencing nature and a few interesting downhill sections.

    If you ski the interesting slopes twice, you get over 700 m of altitude difference.

    Author’s recommendation

    If you happen to be in the area or even live there, this nice half-day route into the Knüll Mountains is certainly worthwhile.

    Roadbook

    Our ski hike first follows the service road. Soon a clearing in the forest belt of the summit structure becomes visible, which we head for. Over the ski slope, you go to the flat summit plateau to a covered breakfast bench. Now we take off the skins and ski down the open meadows towards Salzberg, keeping right, as far as the terrain allows.

    The return is along the same route.
