Easy ski tour along the Loser Panoramastrasse or the tourers' ascent trail. The descent on slopes is only possible during the operating hours of the Loser Bergbahnen. Outside the operating hours, the ski touring ascent trail and the panorama road can be used for the ascent. For the descent only the panorama road can be used.

The prices can be found on the homepage of the Loser Bergbahnen.

Author’s recommendation

After the ascent you can reward yourself with a piece of cake or pie at the Loserhütte or in the Loser Alm!

Destination

Loser Skiarena (Tourers' parking lot)

Turn-by-turn directions

The ascent track is reached after about 200 meters on the panoramic road after the overpass uphill, the track branches off here to the left of the road. To the right is the sign "1,000 meters above sea level". The ascent takes place at parking lot 1 below the avalanche cones. The route is marked with arrows and boards, according to which you orient yourself during the ascent. Below the avalanche cones, the trail, again marked, leads between the road and the slope directly to the Loserhütte, where the end of the ascent trail is. This ski touring route is located in unsecured alpine terrain, where alpine dangers can be expected at any time (avalanche danger, avalanche blasting, bad weather) and is only for ascending with suitable touring equipment.

The descent via the piste is only possible during the operating hours of the Loser Bergbahnen between 09:00 and 16:00!

ATTENTION: from 16:30 until 08:30 the following day the ski area is closed for safety reasons (preparation work, etc.)!

Tourers ascent path and panorama road can be used for ascent also during this time. For the descent only the panorama road can be used.

Due to preparation work, extreme caution is also required here!
