Hiking in Ramsau am Dachstein and Schladming
paradise for nature lovers
Hike across lush alpine pastures, past grazing cows, up to the home of ibex, chamois and eagles. Would you prefer to travel comfortably by cable car? Summer in Ramsau is hard to beat in terms of diversity.
Crystal-clear bathing lakes entice you to jump into the cool water, flowering meadows are an invitation to picnic, and more than 200 kilometres of hiking trails and spectacular climbing routes invite you to enjoy mountain adventures in the most beautiful setting. Get out on the trail, to your destination on your hiking holiday on the Dachstein.
Freedom awaits you on the Dachstein at an altitude of almost 3,000 metres. Visit the new mountain station with the spectacular “Stairway into the abyss” and the Ice Palace. The Hauser Kaibling with the Schafsinn pond and 800 sheep that spend the summer there is ideal for hikes with the kids.
Very close to us, or rather directly in Ramsau, is the Rittisberg. There, the hut adventure trail awaits you with rustic places to stop for refreshments, and the kids will certainly enjoy the high-altitude playground and the longest fairytale trail in all of Styria.
Via ferratas of varying difficulty and a special stroller-friendly circular path are a real highlight on the Reiteralm, as are the picturesque Spiegelsee lake and the challenging high-altitude circular path with three summits to bag.
Ramsau am Dachstein is also the filming location for the TV series "Die Bergretter" ("The Mountain Rescuers"). Every Friday, the tourist association offers free guided tours following in the footsteps of the mountain rescuers. As you can see, there is plenty of variety and we at the Hotel Matschner are happy to give you tips and tell you about the most beautiful tours for your hiking holiday in Ramsau.
