Easy ski tour from the Hauereck ski area to the Steinriegel and back again via the piste. If there is enough snow, you can go up via the toboggan run and back down via the ski slope. A stop at the Sonnenhütte, Schutzhütte, Schirmbar or the Genusshotel Willenshofer is a must.

ATTENTION: The ski tour is only possible with sufficient snow
