Steinnock ski tour
moderate
Distance 9.6 km
Leaving from St. Oswald, follow the track to the Falkerthaus guesthouse and on to the Lärchenhütte mountain hut. Continue past the Lärchenhütte, along Hundsfeldgraben to the edge of the trees. From here, you will have a fantastic view over the snowy landscape. Head directly to the Steinnock summit across the wintery, snow-covered, open Alpine meadows and then continue back to the starting point. This pleasant route will leave you with rosy cheeks from your descent in the wonderfully clear air of the Nockberge mountains, and a radiant smile from the wonderful views.

Botany Tip - larch trees
This deciduous conifer belongs to the pine family, and its needles turn yellow and drop in autumn. In folk medicine, larch resin is used to ease stomach complaints, nerves and bladder trouble. It is also used in blistering ointment, a very popular household remedy.
