Hochplatte

From the Schwarzentenn car park, the signposted forest road – initially towards Schwarzentenn Alm, then left to the Buchsteinhütte – is impossible to miss and avalanche-safe even with lots of fresh snow. Behind the Buchsteinhütte, it becomes more alpine: serpentine paths lead pathlessly over a short steep slope up to the ridge, which stretches wide and almost flat to the last summit rise. However, to master this, secure snow conditions are required. Downwards, you either follow the ascent track or take the steeper route via the Rosssteinalms back to the Buchsteinhütte, for which the avalanche danger must also be low. You then return to the Schwarzenbach valley via the toboggan run or a shortcut through the forest, where a detour to the Schwarzentenn Alm invites for further refreshments.

Please note that nature is especially sensitive in the cold season. Please keep to the indicated ascents and descents to avoid destroying the protected areas of flora and fauna. You can also help protect nature.

Ski touring equipment, poles, weather-appropriate clothing, provisions, GPS device, avalanche beacon, avalanche probe, shovel, and mobile phone are recommended.

For all ski routes and snowshoe tours: you move in unsecured alpine terrain at your own risk. You must pay attention to alpine dangers, especially avalanche danger. No liability is assumed. All information without guarantee.

Please also observe the hints from the German Alpine Club on snowshoe and ski tours:

In midwinter, peaks, ridges, and crests should be avoided before 10 a.m. and after 4 p.m., as dusk is feeding time for wild animals. Evening and night tours should be limited to slopes in ski areas designated for “tour evenings.” Noise should be generally avoided.

In forest areas and at the tree line, snow sports enthusiasts should stay on the usual ski and snowshoe routes, forest and hiking paths, keep sufficient distance from tree and shrub groups, and protect reforestation and young forest.

Dogs should at least be kept on a leash up to the tree line.

On site, it is important to pay close attention to information boards and signs. You should also kindly address anyone not adhering to the rules for nature protection in the winter mountains. Perhaps they simply lack the necessary knowledge.
