Queen Bischofsmütze Trail
-
GosaukammPhoto: Coen Weesjes, Filzmoos Tourismus
Trailrunning stage around the Bischofsmütze, alpine postcard landscape, changing views of the Bischofsmütze, Däumling, Gosausee, Tauern. Mountaineers' memorial on the Gosau side.
From there, it continues to Sulzenhals and on to Sulzenschneid (1,990 m), which rewards with impressive views of the surrounding mountain scenery. The subsequent descent leads via the Linzer Steig to the Hofpürglhütte and then further up to the Steigl Pass at 2,016 meters, the highest point of the tour. After the pass, a spectacular panorama opens up over the peaks of the Gosaukamm and Lake Gosau.
Along scenic high-altitude trails beneath the Donnerkogel, the route continues to the Gablonzer Hütte, via the Stuhlalm and through the Stuhlloch to the Sulzkaralm. Passing the Kirchgasshütte-Aualm, this varied loop finally leads back to Filzmoos. An impressive day tour with an alpine character, magnificent views, and numerous opportunities to stop for refreshments.

Requirements and General Information
During the tour around the Gosaukamm, you are mostly in high alpine terrain. Appropriate trailrunning equipment and endurance are therefore prerequisites.
Your route will be immortalized by your entry in each hut book along the Gosaukamm. The paths are well signposted, but markings may be obscured by remaining snow. Therefore, it is essential to carry the routing map material. Accompaniment by an experienced guide upon request! Please note that the tour's execution depends on weather conditions! Alternative trails, the use of cable cars and train or bus (payable on site) are always possible.
Tips and suggestions
Due to the risk of injury, running in regular road shoes is not recommended.A few tips to make your run more enjoyable:
- Leave everyday stress behind and enjoy exercising in the fresh air and beautiful natural surroundings.
- Reach your goal step by step! Training should match your fitness level, age, and running distance. Increase mileage gradually.
- Pay attention to proper running technique and an ideal breathing rhythm.
- Running should be fun! Monotony is the beginning of the end, so keep varying your route, distance, and intensity.
- Light stretching before training, but especially after running, helps keep muscles flexible and less prone to injury.
- Cool down with an easy jog or walk. Every workout should be followed by recovery — the harder the effort, the longer the recovery time needed.
- Nutrition tip: Avoid solid food about 2 hours before running, but drink plenty of fluids (fresh spring water) before and during your run. After running, replenish carbohydrate stores with pasta, potatoes, grains, rice, and similar foods.
- Clothing should wick sweat away from the body and be breathable. Proper running shoes should provide an optimal fit (with about a finger’s width of space at the front), cushioning, stability, natural rolling motion, and breathability.
Please respect local guidelines for the protection of nature.Kompass / Freitag und Bernt / Alpine Club map (AV map)
