Guided snowshoe hike in the Hohe Tauern National Park
Join the rangers of the Hohe Tauern National Park on an animal discovery tour in Kalser Ködnitztal! With binoculars and spotting scope in your luggage, you can track down chamois, ibex & co. at the foot of the Großglockner.
The largest ibex population in East Tyrol lives here - with a bit of luck, you might encounter the "kings of the Alps". Start is at the Glocknerwinkel parking lot at 1,920 m, from there the tour leads through the snow-covered larch forest to the tree line.
