Route description

Starting point:

Parking Grünberglift

Ascent:

At the beginning the uphill is on the ski slopes in the west of Grünberglift up to about 1300m. Then you turn to the right (west direction) on the toboggan run. We follow this up to just before the Simmeringalm to deflect and then hike west again to ascend towards the already visible summit of Simmering. There are several ascents in the clear overviewable terrain. Some caution should be exercised in the steep summit slope, which is thoroughly filled with avalanche snow. The view from the top is phenomenal and you can check out many challenging trips in the surrounding mountains. For obvious ascents and descents, safe conditions are absolutely necessary.

Variant: The ascent variant also offers the more demanding Alpsteig, so you can escape the lugers and the toboganners.

Descent:

As ascent, or check out the treeruns. Pleasen be careful and safe our nature and deer.
