Time: 10:00 — 15:00
Location:  Sports ground Gosau, 4824 Gosau
Experience the Löckermoos raised moor in Gosau on a holiday with a “guided hike” in the Salzkammergut.

Enjoy the peace and quiet of nature

A hike with Betty through the high moor called "Löckermoos" in Gosau is a popular activity as it offers a combination of nature experience and cultural insights. Betty Jehle, a local hiking guide, leads visitors through the unique high moor, the historic grindstone quarries and offers interesting information about the nature and culture of the region.

More about the tour

After the convivial ascent with the Gosau slow train, we hike on historic paths through the Löckenmoos ceiling high moor. Passing the "Moorauge" and legendary karst caves, we discover rare plants and the grindstone quarries that are still active today. We enjoy the view of the overwhelming mountain panorama of the Gosaukamm and the stop at a rustic alpine hut.

The "Löckermoos" is an extraordinary high moor with a small lake and karst caves, which is home to a diverse flora and fauna. Betty imparts knowledge about the history of the grindstone quarries, which are still in operation today, and gives insights into life and traditions in Gosau.

The Gosau native leads the hike, so that even less experienced hikers can enjoy the nature and culture of the Löckermoos.

In summary, a hike with Betty through the Löckermoos is an ideal way to discover the beauty and diversity of Gosau's nature and culture, benefiting from the experience and knowledge of a local hiking guide.
