Raxalpe Vienna's house-mountain Austria 2.007m
Skitour on the Raxalpe with danger of avalanches
Specification: In 1926 opend the cable-car with 1.013m
difference in altitude to the south-east side of the plateau. The platform of
the Raxalpe extend to 25qkm and the highest peak is the Heukuppe on the west
end.
From the north-east you start in the Höllental nearby the Weichtalhaus in 563m
one way is called Wachthüttelkamm and with support of ca. 20 ladders you reach
the plateau. A lot of paths beginns after you climb the Schönbrunner Stiege -
exemplary the Gaislochsteig with a short moist ladder (during the winter it
means iceclimbing), the Alpenvereinssteig with a 60m high ladder to overcome
the first wall and much more. The distance to the peak is to long for a one-day
