Zienitzer:Styria Snowshoe Guide

With snowshoes on your feet, you can stomp along beautiful paths through the wintry Styria. From the snow-covered vineyards in the south to the white glaciers of the Dachstein, Styria is incredibly diverse even in the cold season. The snowshoe tours in the Rother Snowshoe Guide "Styria" are equally varied. With 58 tours ranging from leisurely enjoyment hikes to more challenging adventures, there is something for everyone.

This Rother Snowshoe Guide features tours suitable for both beginners and enthusiasts as well as experienced snowshoe hikers. They lead into the mountainous landscapes of the Dachstein massif and the Schladminger Tauern, across the plateaus of Hochschwab, and into the gently rolling Styrian wine country, which tempts with scenic high-altitude hikes. On the snowshoe hikes, wide panoramas of the Styrian mountains unfold from the alpine pastures and peaks.

All snowshoe hikes are described in detail, with map excerpts illustrating the route. Important information on requirements, slope orientation, and avalanche risk is provided. There are also tips for places to stop for a break. After all, what could be better than enjoying a cozy hut or a warm inn during a winter tour? The introductory section of the snowshoe guide provides information on equipment, avalanche danger, and the best time of year. Additionally, GPS data is available for download, so you have all the necessary information compactly gathered in a handy book.

The authors, Elisabeth Zienitzer and Silvia Sarcletti, prefer to be out on snowshoes in winter. They know the most beautiful corners of their homeland – in their snowshoe guide, they share many insider tips.
