A jewel in the heart of the Schladming-Dachstein Region!

The Steirische Bodensee in the Seewig Valley can be reached via Ruperting near Haus or the Gössenberg from Aich. This excursion destination is worth seeing and visiting all year round. In winter, however, the landscape around the Steirische Bodensee exudes its special flair: snow-covered trees, the frozen lake, the Hochwildstelle in its most beautiful winter dress - all united in the valley basin of the Seewigtal. A hike through seemingly untouched nature.

The Steirischer Bodensee winter hiking trail has been awarded the Austrian Hiking Quality Seal.
