Schönwieskopf
2,328 mA scenic first ski tour close to Obergurgl, with a gentle ascent and beautiful views into the Rotmoos Valley.
The tour
What to expect.
Schönwieskopf itself is a modest rise above the Schönwies Hut and can be reached from there without difficulty. Our approach through the Gurgler Gorge and the open stone-pine forests beyond is exceptionally scenic and makes this tour a special experience.
The views down to Obergurgl and into the Rotmoos Valley are beautiful. This is an ideal tour for ski-touring beginners, as well as for relaxed ski tourers who value the landscape and the experience as much as the summit.
It is rewarding even on days with unsettled weather. The tour is also suitable for confident piste skiers without off-piste experience, as the descent can follow the winter track from the Schönwies Hut if required.
A private full-day tour, adapted to the group and conditions.
Depending on the chosen start and route variant.
