Tourism in Salzburg’s Pongau is threatened with a bitter loss: with the end of the winter season on April 7th, the Südwiener Hütte on the Obere Pleißlingalm could remain forever. Tenant Tanja Scharler announced this on Tuesday. According to the district administration’s decision, the aging hut is to be closed. This means that the region between Obertauern and Flachau is losing one of its most popular excursion destinations in summer and winter; In addition, around 88 kilometers of hiking trails would no longer be looked after by the Alpine Association (AV) in the future.
