Ski touring recommendations

This page will give you some ideas for ski tours in the region of Innsbruck. A great way to get a wonderful insight into the wonders of winter, especially under good conditions. These are, of course, only suggestions, as the final responsibility lies with the tourer to inform him or herself about current conditions before setting out.

Ski touring is a sport in which the risks should never be underestimated. We cannot accept any responsibility for snow conditions, avalanche risks and other outside influences. Every ski tourer is responsible for their own adequate avalanche protection and should check all current conditions with Tyrol's Avalanche Warning Service.

This ski tour is suitable for experienced tourers, and knowledge of deep snow and avalanches is obligatory. Start at the Arzkasten car park and head along the toboggan run. Cross the stream and turn left. The route heads uphill by a clearing in the forest before rejoining the sledge run. Continue to the Lehnberghaus alpine hut and head north to the "Hölle", before going through the sloping corrie to the Grünstein Gorge.

Descent is via the same path.

Forecast

We will experience typical foehn weather conditions today. The sky will be mostly bright with some mountain peaks being shrouded in “foehn fish clouds” (in technical jargon: “Altocumulus lenticularis”). The wind will be gusty at times in the valleys and temperatures will of course be warm.

Tendency

The next few days will bring nice and dry weather with a few bands of clouds passing over our region at times. The temperatures will continue to rise.
