• The route of this snowshoe trail is signposted, but not specially prepared. However, it mostly runs parallel to the winter hiking trail.
• For route selection as well as assessment of your own experience, performance ability, and alpine hazards during ascents and descents in the alpine terrain, everyone is responsible for themselves.
• Plan every snowshoe tour carefully and adjust it to your own conditions as well as to the weather and the season.
• The weather in the mountains can change quickly. Therefore, bring suitable clothing and enough provisions and water. Turn back in time if the weather is uncertain.
• Inform others about the route and if possible never go alone.
• Be considerate of other hikers as well as plants and animals.

A snowshoe route to Lochstafel is especially worthwhile as part of the "Zauberweg"
