Winter walking in Schönachtal

Getting there

To the lifts and back

The local ski bus serves the access lifts. The bus connection between Königsleiten, Gerlos and Zell has limited capacity and does not replace the ski connection. Plan your return over the mountain and use the bus timetable for separate journeys in the valley.
