1 Day

Description

Join me in this ski touring trip in the Sonnspitze mountain (2062 m), in the land of Tyrol, Austria. This mountain is in the Kitzbühel Alps.

It's a very popular hiking tour in the Auracher Graben. It's also great for ski touring. Indeed, it offers a steep departure from the summit, all in safe conditions.

One great thing about this itinerary is that it's apt for ski touring beginners as well as for experts. The altitude change during the program is 1044 m.

We follow the Wildalmgraben in the valley on the toboggan run to the sign "Gebra" and climb along the track on the left over relatively steep alpine terrain. We first go over the Niederwildalm up to the Hochwildalm hut, (1557 m). To the right, slightly below the hut along the signpost, a few meters of altitude loss before we cross the steep NW slope below Schotting. In a large arc through the very clear forest into the open ground below the summit. The summit ascends from the south over the crest to the highest point.

Some nearby resorts are Kitzbühel, Fieberbrunn and Saalbach-Hinterglemm. If you are in one of them during your ski trip, this 1-day option is great!

Did you find this proposal interesting? Then please contact me so we can leave together during the winter! Another great program that you can check out is Guided off piste skiing in Sankt Anton.

2 Great days with Mathias. He was awesome with our group that had mixed ability and ages 11-60+. And he was terrific at planning another full day with 11-18 year old kids who had an awesome adventure. Thanks Mathias.

The pricing system was not really user friendly. Still I have a positive feedback in the website. The link was sharable with the group, everything in one place with booking code as reference. It was a positive experience for me. I'm happy. It was even easy to organise it for the others.

Georg is an extremely knowledgable ski guide who is qualified as both a mountain guide and a top level ski instructor so perfect for getting you going in the off piste or taking the more experienced to a new level. He also speaks perfect English.

My guide ended up being a local snowboard guide named Peter. It was excellent. Lovely guy, we got to ride some powder as well as practice searching with the avalanche rescue equipment. All round good day. Would highly recommend

We had a wonderful day skiing down to Fiberbrunn with our guide Mathias Leo. He found deep light powder snow. The snow was unexpectedly good considering it had not snowed for many weeks! It is only guides with the best knowledge that can find good conditions long after the last snow fall. The smiles remained on our faces the whole day :) Henrik

Really enjoyed a day of off piste with Mathias. We were lift-serviced with some short hikes and traverses and found plenty of fresh powder! If you are honest about what you want, and your group's abilities, then Mathias will create an experience that works!

I found Explore Share an excellent service in locating me a local alpine guide, who in turn tailored for me a brilliant 4 days mountaineering in Austria. Many thanks to Lupe for all her assistance in organising my guide and Mathias for his expert & personable guidance in the Austrian Alps.

Mathias took us on a slightly different trip more catered to rock climbing. It was exactly what we were looking for! We did a one day multi pitch climbing course and then a one day mountain ascent. I'd highly recommend Mathias if you're looking for an adventure in Austria.

Great experience! My only suggestion would be to specify better the equipment needed (e.g. when booking on the website it was mentioned "the guide has all needed safety equipment", but after booking the guide then specified you needed to provide your own skins for the crosscountry walking etc., which was news to us). The rest was perfect!
