22.10. - 15.05.2027

 Due to the weather, the Sölk pass is closed until further notice
 Driving from Stein/Enns up to the Hansenalm is possible.

 A major detour is in place via the Triebener or Radstädter Tauern.

Tour description

The Deneck has developed into the most popular ski touring destination in the area of the [Sölkpass](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%B6lkpass). Open alpine meadows, wide cirques, and an imposing peak on the main ridge of the Niedere Tauern are the special features of this tour.

Young explorers and experienced ski tourers alike will find what they are looking for here. Slopes above the tree line give winter sports enthusiasts enough freedom to pursue their interests in a varied way. In the forested areas, special consideration must be given to the wildlife. Wildlife protection zones are marked on the maps of the various tours. Please try to stick to the rules and remain fair to the animals and plants - you are entering their habitat!
