Winter activities:
Filzmoos and its Bischofsmuetze mountain belong together like Zermatt and the Matterhorn or like rope and carabiner. The Bischofsmuetze is the highest and probably the most beautiful mountain in the Gosaukamm range. Its imposing form is unmistakable. And not only that. The Bischofsmuetze is a place of energy and tranquility.
The 'Large Bishops's Mitre' (2,454 m), the 'Small Mitre' (2,428 m). The peaks are formed of reef limestone, the lower parts of primary rock. The 'Large Bishop's Mitre' is a popular mountain for climbing. It was conquered for the first time on 28.06.1879 by the mountain guides from Ramsau, Auhäusler and Steiner. On the 22nd of September 1993 at 3.45 p.m. there was a tremendous rumbling. A rock face of approx. 100 m wide broke off from the eastern flank of the Mitre and thundered down, coming to rest in the Eiskarl. On Sunday, the 10th of October 1993 the earth under the mountain shook again. More than 50,000 m³ of rock.
