"3-day trip in the Rax-Alpen region. First day we stayed in the Ottohaus, slight snow coverage. Second day, we summited Heukuppe, with varying snow depth, staying at the Waxriegelhaus. Night was a bit noisy, so we were a bit tired on the descent on the 3rd day. We got almost perfect weather for all 3 days, if we don't count the stormy winds. " — Balint • Oct 24, 2025

"📅 2 days 🥾 51.3km 🏔 3,164m ⌚️ 23h 10m 🙂 31x FI 😰 2x DNF
After long time, I rewarded myself with another adventurous, epic hike towards and across majestic Schneeberg, through paths I haven't explored before. I reserved 2 full days for this trip, starting on Saturday morning in Grünbach, hiking through Hohe Wand to very nice ridge Plattenstein - Katharinenschlag - Öhler - Schober with nice, starry, warm, but windy night in my hammock on the meadow above Mamauwiese with excellent view to Schneeberg.
There I continued on Sunday morning with scorching sun above my head, to busy morning Edelweißhütte with short stop for an espreso shot and glass of schiwasser. So I empowered myself to overcome steep climb through beautiful Fadensteig, which immediately became my favourite route to Schneeberg plateau (so far!). I rewarded myself by cosy lunch (Käsespetzle plus bier) and continued amongst crowds of tourists to Waxriegel and later down, down, down, long descent through interesting stops of Salamander Bahn with many traditional caches along the path. I reached my final destination in great mood and condition (body battery at minimum, 5%) in Puchberg.
From there, it was the boring p..." — Rikitan • Jun 29, 2025
