The Loser adventure mountain is accessible to excursionists and hikers via the Loseralm. Numerous walking trails, hiking routes and mountain tours of varying degrees of difficulty lead from the Loser Plateau to some of the most important peaks and most beautiful vantage points in the Salzkammergut.
The panoramic cable car takes you comfortably to the Begrstation right next to the Loseralm.

TIP: Erzherzog Johann circular hiking trail around Lake Augstsee - easily accessible from the Loseralm!
Single trail ‘Augst Trail’ on the Loser. The varied & exciting MTB trail invites you to get to know the rugged nature of the Loser!

Loser panoramic via ferrata "Sophie" on the Dimlwand on the Loser plateau is also an attractive option for adult via ferrata beginners and is ideal as via ferrata training for all age groups.
Panorama via ferrata "Sisi"
This interesting via ferrata is named after the empress, as she is said to have climbed the Loser under her own steam. It also rightly bears the name ‘Panorama via ferrata’: the view over the Styrian Salzkammergut and to the Dachstein is sensational.
