By Sabine Neuweg and Alois Peham .
Varied Ski tour on forest tracks , then in the pleasant rising , spiced with some steeper sections sprawling Rosskar , Difficulty: II , avalanche hazard : moderate, significant only in the steep flanks.

From the parking lot , walk first along the Pießling the short distance to Sensenwerk Schröckenfux . The coveted blue scythes have been around for 450 years here produced in one of Austria's oldest industrial companies. Shortly thereafter , the skis are strapped and initially follow the trail markers direction Dümlerhütte . Soon , cross the river and climbs higher on a forest road . Not far from the cable car to Dümlerhütte one leaves the mark and continue up the forest road until after a double bend branches off a flat way . This leads steeply up , you cross another forest road and soon you reach the small pasture area of Grasseggeralm . A nice place for a rest. Pleasant ascending the route leads through the extensive larch mountain forests to the Glöcklkar . Some steeper passages will be overcome with the help of hairpins . Past the last trees looks free and Kar are close . On a beautiful place with respect to distance the steep rock faces we finish the climb and enjoy the alpine scenery.
Experienced climbers can climb up dead from here also through the rocks towards man, to make the descent on the Speikwiese and Riegler Ramitsch back to the valley . We rejoice at the magnificent powder in this north side located Kar down to the Grasseggeralm and follow for further downhill substantially increase the track back to Roßleithen .
