Description

The snowshoe hike starts at the Ropferstub'm and first follows Trail No. 27 through the snowy landscape to the main road. After crossing the road, the route continues along Trail No. 24 to the winter idyll of Katzenloch.

From there, Trail No. 99 leads up to the Rauthhütte, where hikers can take a well-deserved break. The descent follows the old lift track, winding through the deeply snow-covered winter landscape down to Leutasch/Moos. Since the traditional hut also has a spectacular natural toboggan run, you might consider bringing a sled along for the way down.

At the finish, near Parking Lot 18 'Munde,' you'll find the Mundestadl restaurant, where regional delicacies await to satisfy your appetite.
