Map, elevation profile & further information

From the Hochwurzen mountain terminal next to the ski slope downwards the so called "Rohrmooser Frei" until you reach the winter hiking path. Turn right and follow this path until the junciton, where the path is marked with No. 773. Turn left until the farmhouse "Pocher", where you have to turn left again and walk via the snowy fields towards the valley terminal of Obertalbahn. From there you walk up beside the ski slope via the "Rohrmooser Frei" back to the starting point.
From Schladming take provincial highway L722 (Rohrmoosstraße road) to Rohrmoos and at the roundabout continue straight on to the valley terminal of Gipfelbahn Hochwurzen cable-car.Parking is available at the valley terminal of Gipfelbahn Hochwurzen cable-car.

Before each and every ski tour or snow shoe walk you should check the most recent avalanche warnings which can be found at www.lawine-steiermark.at.

In winter time it is therefore important to also be careful on supposedly easy walks. Sections that are in the shadows can easily get icy, and slopes on the side of the trail may have avalanche hazard. Mountain sport is always carried out under personal responsibility - in winter even more than in summer. Tourist offices or avalanche warning services do not take any responsibility in respect to information provided.
