Filzmoos is one of those places that has kept its alpine character intact. Tucked between the distinctive Bischofsmütze peak and the Dachstein massif, the mountain village sits on a sunny plateau in Austria's Salzburg region. Lush green alpine meadows, clear mountain streams, quiet lakes and dense forests shape a landscape that has made Filzmoos a favourite for decades.

Hiking Between the Bischofsmütze and the Dachstein

Summer in Filzmoos is all about movement and time outdoors. A wide network of hiking trails, panoramic paths and alpine summit routes opens up around the village. Particularly popular are the Königinnenrunde loop at the foot of the Bischofsmütze, the scenic paths on the Rossbrand and multi-day hikes around the Dachstein.

Mountain Biking, E-MTB and Gravel Biking

Cyclists find ideal conditions here too. Mountain bike, e-MTB and gravel routes run across alpine pastures, through forests and along scenic mountain roads. Among the best known are the Alm Bike Filzmoos routes, the legendary Stoneman Taurista Challenge and the Dachstein Bike Experience.

Climbing With 300 Routes

Anyone heading for the vertical will find over 300 climbing routes of every difficulty level at the Filzmoos climbing garden, one of the most varied climbing areas in the Salzburg region.
