Description

The Rauris Valley lies at the foot of the Austrian Alps. In winter, the area gets covered in snow and turns into a perfect destination for winter sports lovers. Come with me on this stunning 4-day splitboarding tour in this beautiful spot!

The Rauris Valley is located in SalzburgerLand, the biggest community within the High Tauern National Park. It has a very long cultural history involving gold mining, trading and it is considered to be a natural treasure.

This tour combines splitboarding and mountaineering in a breathtaking alpine scenery. Each day we will climb to different spots and enjoy some incredible descents in the Eastern Alps. Sleeping in charming mountain huts will make this adventure even more fabulous!

Some of the areas that we will explore include the Hocharn (3,254m), the highest mountain in the Goldberg Group, and the glaciated mountain Hoher Sonnblick (3,106m). You will find the complete itinerary at the end of this description.

Please consider that for this program you should be able to splitboard on all kinds of snow. Also, it is also important to have a good fitness level as we will hike for 6 to 8 hours per day to reach the best hidden spots of the Rauris Valley.Of course, I will be there to help and guide you!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
