Climbing the Hochkönig

Due to its rock quality, the Hochkönig is certainly the best alpine climbing area in the Salzburg region.

Friends of pleasure climbing will get their money’s worth in various slab routes. But also more extreme alpine climbers will find a large field of activity in the south face of the Hochkönig, the Wetterriffel, the flat field or at the gate pillar.
The tours selected here are just a few of the many interesting options in the Hochkönig area!
