Go straight ahead towards the Dachstein and the groomed track will lead you to the Seethalerhütte. This mountain hut was originally built as a mountain shelter for mountaineers and offers a stunning view of the Dachstein Südwand (south face). Walk back the same way. Due to the natural behaviour of the glaciers, the path between the Schladming and Hallstatt glaciers may occasionally not be groomed. In such cases, the route remains closed for safety reasons.
