Gamsfeld

Gamsfeld rises to 2,027 meters above sea level, standing as the highest peak in the Salzkammergut Mountains within the Northern Limestone Alps.

The mountain's surroundings played a central role during the Salt Trade Era, when merchants traversed these routes to transport valuable minerals across the region.

Local mountain guides share traditional knowledge of Alpine navigation techniques, passing down generations of expertise about Gamsfeld's paths and weather patterns.

The T2-classified hiking trail begins at Rußbach village, with clear markers leading to the summit through a gradual ascent of 1,200 meters.

From the peak, visitors observe both sunrise and sunset across different Alpine ranges, creating dual lighting conditions across the Dachstein Mountains.
