From Weissbach bei Lofer to Fieberbrunn

For all those who do not want to hike the entire 24 hours, a shortened 12-hour hike will be on the programme from 2022. The start will be together in Weissbach bei Lofer and the final destination of the shorter route will be the Gasthof Eiserne Hand in Fieberbrunn.

The Stoaberg hike takes place every year in June at the solstice and has a new route each year. As the route passes over high-alpine terrain, a certain level of fitness, a good head for heights and sure-footedness are required! The Fun Connection mountain guides will safely lead you from start to finish and are also on hand to answer any questions or to help with physical injuries. The 24 hours demand a lot from hikers, but every finisher would agree: the physical exertion is worth it every single time. When you tackle the last kilometres at sunset, your exertion over the past hours is soon forgotten and you can be proud to be called a "Stoaberg-Hike finisher".

NEW: The participation fee must be paid in advance (by 10 June 2022)!

No basic rations are needed!

Shuttle bus - from end to start!

Costs: € 5,- (to be paid in advance)

Based on experience from previous years, the shuttle bus will this time also transport people from the finish to the start on the Saturday morning. It was always difficult for participants to find the right time of departure at the end of the hike. In this way, everyone has their car at the finish or can then be picked up at the end. So remember: There will be no bus back to the start upon completion of the hike! The exact departure time will be announced in due time before the date.

Green Event

Logo - Green Event - State of Salzburg
Stoaberg hike becomes a “Green Event Salzburg”: Organising a sustainable event is particularly important to us, so that we can benefit from the pleasures of our wonderful nature for a long time. Therefore, we have decided to organise the Stoaberg hike as a green event from now on and this year we have been awarded the "Green Event Salzburg” seal of approval.

The checklists of the Green Events Salzburg form the basis of our sustainability concept.

Climate-friendly mobility: We attach great importance to a climate-friendly arrival and departure of our participants. The event location is accessible via public transport (Information about the best connections can be found here at www.oebb.at/en). In the event that arrival by bus or train is not possible, we kindly ask that you travel to the event in shared taxis or by carpooling.

For energy-saving reasons we will of course avoid all kinds of special effects, as well as outdoor lighting and projectors.

If litter cannot be avoided, we will do our best to dispose of this appropriately and will take into account the regional waste separation systems. And for this we also hope for the support and assistance of our participants.

Seasonal, regional and, where possible, organic food: At the refuelling stations and during breaks in our restaurants and mountain lodges, you will be treated to regional specialities.

We will consciously use reusable dishes and cutlery as well as glasses, and will buy our drinks in bulk and/or reusable containers. Therefore, we request that our hikers avoid bringing food and drink in disposable packaging.
