Filzmoos

You think you have seen it all and then comes something that you absolutely did not anticipate, especially when you don’t have any expectations of it (or planning). Filzmoos Höhenloipe is situated 1600m high in the picturesque area of St.Johann (Salzburg Bundesland). Yet, another place, that is on the list to be visited repeatedly in future.

The route was prepared really well. Because we had to take a lift (11EUR) uphill, there were not so many people skiing.
