    Safety information

    FAIR PLAY & RESPECT:

    Mindfulness for nature – landowners – your health... and safety on the mountain have top priority during your trip and the related tour planning!

    Therefore, inform yourself before every ski tour about the rules of conduct - Safety on the Mountain, as well as the current snow and avalanche reports Carinthia Avalanche Warning Service and the weather conditions.

    Waste disposal:

    Trash is not always avoidable – but it has no place in nature and must be disposed of properly (preferably in the valley or at home).

     

    Emergency numbers:

    European emergency number: 112 (access to every available network)

    Mountain rescue Austria: 140

    Tips and suggestions

    Are you looking for snowshoe hiking route tips in the region as well as a certified guide for a guided snowshoe hike?

    You can find this and many more infos at - Route tips and provider information

    Refreshment options:

    In the town center of Hermagor, as well as in the surrounding villages (Micheldorf, Egg...), there are numerous year-round open refreshment options – details at Service A-Z.

    On some winter days there is also a refreshment option at "Gasthaus zum Rudi" (directly on the Egger Alm).

    Roadbook

    Starting/ending point:

    Starting directly from the Garnitzenklamm parking lot, the route leads upwards through numerous bends of the (groomed) road through the forest.

    Depending on the snow conditions and with regard to wildlife (dusk etc.), some pathless shortcuts (mostly along the summer trail) through the forest are also possible across some very wide bends (see the track of the ski tour ST_N6 - in the area from Garnitzenklamm to Egger Alm).

    Both the more direct ascent option via the road and the route option via shortcuts ultimately lead you to the wide, flat areas of the Egger Alm.

    Return/descent:

    The indicated time covers "only" the ascent time, not the descent (the return path follows the same route as the ascent – along the road).
