Over forest roads, fine soils and steep climbs you pull your track up to the panoramic ridge.

With nature on you and you: On this challenging tour, it is quite possible that you will only see the inhabitants of the forest. The little-used route takes you initially over the forest road and then over several floors and steep climbs to the ridge of the Wolfnalmspitze at 2,049 m. Once you have arrived at the summit, the Ahornkogel, Dachstein and the Ennstal will give you a warm welcome.

More information

From the Ennstalbundesstraße (B320) turn off at the Trautenfels junction in the direction of Irdning, Donnersbach, Donnersbachwald. Through the village of Donnersbach and another 12 km to Donnersbachwald. Past the Riesneralm and another approx. 2 km to the Schaupphof on the right side of the road.

The ski tour starts directly at the parking lot. You follow the cleared forest road up to the 5th bend. Now you track long and flat on the not cleared forest road to a stream and cross it. A short distance later you climb up to the right through the high forest and come back to the forest road, which you follow to the Wolfnalmhütte, a hunting lodge. Here you turn south to the left side of the wide valley before it gets steeper at a prominent boulder. Be careful - there it can be dangerous for avalanches. Via individual short ascents and small floors you finally reach the summit block, which can only be reached on foot. There is no summit cross or summit book here, but a magnificent panorama that shows you the nearby Ahornkogel, the Schreinl and the mountains of the Planneralm behind it.

The descent follows the ascent track.

As a downhill option, you can cross the Wolfnalmbach at the Wolfnalmhütte. Then you follow the forest road to the 7th bend of the ascent path and follow this before closing the circle at the 5th bend and descending to the starting point.

Unfortunately, there is no public transport to the starting point of the ski tour.

Parking at the starting point.
