The Dreiherrnspitze is a spectacular, complex and challenging glacier ski tour. Especially difficult is its length, glacial cracks and terrain break at the end. First, it is easy to climb glacier the Südl. Malhamkees to Regentörl saddle. After a short downhill northwards to the Umbalkees Glacier, the traverse between the cracks and then to the Althauskees. Relatively steep slope to difficult terrain break (depending on snow conditions). After overcoming it, there is only 200 high meters in easy terrain. Downhill same track as ascent.

Favorite ski tour from Essener-Rostocker Hütte. Climbing the Grosser Geiger from the south leads along the Maurerkees glacier. At 2650 meters, the route turns north-westward and heads a rather steep slope towards the flat upper glacier. There is skidepo under the top pyramid. On the top of the undemanding terrain in crampons and ice axe. Follow the same route to hut.

A shorter skitour on the lookout Keeskogel provides a fantastic panorama of the whole area of the main alpine ridge. Hohe Tauern at your fingertips - Grossvenediger, Grosser Geiger and Schlieferspitze. Final exposed ridge climbing requires little skill, dificulty I to II. UIAA. Much depends on snow conditions.

Grosser Drusenturm is a very challenging ski tour in Ratikon, Austria (Montafon, Vorarlberg) from Lindauer Hütte to the rocky peak of Grosser Drusenturm. Due to a very steep, 300-meter altitude below the summit, it can be realized only under excellent conditions (weather, stable snow).

2. etapa 4denního skialpového přechodu Nockberge Trail vede z Innerkremsu na Turracher Höhe a je ze všech nejnáročnější - jak délkou, převýšenm tak i technickou náročností. Oblé kopce alpského pohoří Nockberge mají jedinou nevýhodu - vítr z jejich svahů často odfoukne sníh a je ho místy nedostatek. Po bezproblémovém výstupu na Königstuhl a Karlnock následuje sjezd do sedla Stangnock a pak po širokém hřebenu nahoru na Gregerlnock. Následující sjezd poměrně prudkým svahem má lavinový potenciál - buďte pozorní, v případě špatných podmínek sjíždějte po hřebenu do míst, kde je svah mírnější. Po sjezdu na alm následuje orientačně zapeklitá fáze - držte se striktně linie v GPS. Za potokem začíná výstup na Winkler Alm. Cesta na sjezdovku nevede přes les (pozor na stopy). Až dorazíte k sjezdovce, musíte ještě vystoupat k lanovce Schafalmbahn (na dohled) a po sjezdovce č.1 na sedlo Turracher Höhe.
