Let's take a look at the ski tour mentioned by Pepi to the Reiterkarspitze. From the Untertilliach-Winkl bus stop, it's just a few minutes' walk to the Soldhäuser on the opposite side of the Gail river. Here it's time to strap on your skis and head into the valley for the hour mentioned above. An hour that flies by in the right company and increases the anticipation of the further ascent with every step. Once you reach the end of the valley, the trail "finally" climbs a little steeper at the end of a slightly ascending alpine meadow in a westerly direction, into the extensive eastern slopes of the Reiterkarspitze.
The ascent is always in the direction of the valley - diagonally upwards, you could say - the Oberalm serves as a point of orientation, from where you head up the last 100 meters of altitude in a westerly direction to the ridge and finally reach the summit from the south via a wide ridge. The descent follows the ascent track with plenty of space on both sides. An important tip: no matter how tempting the summit slope on the east side looks, it is best to avoid it! There are often deceptive drift snow packs here, which can result in very large avalanches if triggered!
