Gosaukamm

Popular with climbers is the jagged Gosaukamm, a rugged chain of Dolomitic type which branches northwestward off the main massif and gives the Gosau valley its characteristic aspect. Below the highest peak, the Bischofsmütze (2,459m/8,068ft), stands the Hofpürgl hut (1,703m/5,588ft), from which a path of moderate difficulty, the Linzer Steig, leads to the Adamek hut. The path continues along the whole Gosau ridge to the Gablonzer Haus (1,550m/5,085ft), on the Zwieselalm near Gosau, one of the most beautiful areas of Alpine meadow in the Salzkammergut.
