As of summer 2011, a brand new challenge awaits all those who are in good physical condition, are sure-footed and experienced mountain hikers: "The Seven Summits of Saalbach Hinterglemm". This nearly 24-kilometer long hiking tour over the highest summits of the Glemmtal, with truly alpine character and a huge 1,413 meters of altitude, is a tour for the tried-and-tested individualists who are physically fit mountaineers. The start of "The Seven Summits of Saalbach Hinterglemm" Tour is easily reached by the cable car Schattberg xPress. The well marked path leads from Stemmerkogel over Hochkogel to the most difficult climb of the tour - the Hochsaalbachkogel. The tour continues over Bärensteigkogel, Manlitz- and Mittagskogel to the final highlight and highest peak of the Glemmvalley, the Geißstein with 2.363 m. Some extra power reserves should also be scheduled for the difficult descent of the Birgl to the end of the valley. There are no cabins to cater the hikers along the route, so a good preparation is essential: the tour should only be started well equipped, with sufficient food and water in the backbag and planning concerning weather or alternative options of descents. |
