--> Mountain pasture safety rules & tips: While hiking in this region, you’ll encounter many mountain pastures with free-roaming cattle. Please familiarize yourself with these rules before your trip. Just a quick note to say that the link to those rules was broken, but a quick google found them. I have a dog so I was curious to see the rules, but it's really just common sense to me. (I lived in the UK with our dog for 9 years so my wife and I encountered a LOT of sheep and cattle there on hikes.) Anyway, the new link is here: https://www.schladming-dachstein.at/en/regional-and-offerings/blog_/rules_meadows Thank you for such a fabulous site! I just discovered it a couple of days ago and I believe I will use it a lot now that we have moved to Vienna. You two are my types of travelers!

In reply to Joel Mcmillin. Hi Joel, You can drive to Ursprungalm (18 EUR toll), the trailhead. You can also pay for the bus ride. Please contact the Schladming-Dachstein tourist office for up-to-date pricing. All the best, Sabrina

Hi. My wife and I are planning to spend a two nights in Schladming the first week of September and hike to Giglachsee Lakes. We will not be staying a hotel that offers the sommercard. How much does the card cost? Or can one just pay for a bus ticket when boarding the hiking bus 972? Do you know how much that would cost? We will have a rental car, so could do the drive. This will be our first trip to Austria and trying to figure out everything. Many thanks!
