Ski touring on the Hochkönig is also very popular and offers a unique opportunity to explore untouched slopes far from the tourist trails. The summit's unique topography is ideal for exhilarating ski tours. In addition to classic ski tours that start early in the morning and often last all day, there are also torchlit twilight tours that bathe the mountain in a fascinating, mysterious light.
