Hinterstoder - mountain world in the heart of Upper Austria
===========================================================

### Views of tideways and clear lakes. Footsteps in time with the mountains.

**Hinterstoder** is nestled between Großer Priel and Warscheneck - where the mountains in the south of 360° Alpenland characterise the horizon. In summer, hiking trails and alpine paths lead through the Tote Gebirge, past the tranquil [**Schiederweiher**](https://www.360alpenland.com/en/schiederweiher.html) and up to sweeping views over the Stodertal valley. In winter, the [**Hinterstoder Höss ski area**](https://www.360alpenland.com/en/oesterreich-poi/detail/203103/skigebiet-hinterstoder-hutterer-hoess.html) leaves its tracks in the snow, while [**winter hiking trails**](https://www.360alpenland.com/en/winter-hiking.html) and [**cross-country ski trails**](https://www.360alpenland.com/en/cross-country-skiing.html) offer peace and quiet.

What makes this place special is the interplay of alpine vigour and a down-to-earth attitude. Hut hosts cook with ingredients from Upper Austria, tell of old ways and new ideas. Between the mountain railway, panoramic tour and sunrise at the summit, there is space for conscious moments - active or mindful, sporty or enjoyable.

**Hinterstoder** in the Alps thus becomes a place where nature, exercise and encounters come together naturally - close to the town of Steyr, close to the [**Kalkalpen National Park**](https://www.360alpenland.com/en/kalkalpen-national-park.html) and yet very close to you.

History of Hinterstoder
-----------------------

### Mountain farming life and pioneering spirit. Ski tracks and signs of the times.

Hinterstoder in the south of 360° Alpenland in Upper Austria is more than just a mountain village at the foot of the Großer Priel. The history of the municipality dates back to the 12th century; the name "Stoder" first appears around 1240 and refers to the stony, cool soil of this alpine landscape de.wikipedia.org. Farming structures, forestry and hunting gradually developed into an independent community.

With the expansion of the road into the Stodertal valley and the connection to the Pyhrn railway at the beginning of the 20th century, Hinterstoder became accessible - and thus open to guests hinterstoder.ooe.gv.at. Skiing began here in 1910 and the first prize skiing competition took place in 1912. What began as a winter sports craze for a few people had a lasting impact on the community's identity. In 1959, a cable car brought the Höß area closer, followed by the first Ski World Cup race in 1986 - a milestone for tourism in Hinterstoder.

At the same time, the connection to nature remained a defining feature. Hinterstoder is located in the surroundings of the Kalkalpen National Park; its ancient beech forests are part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site and symbolise a landscape that is allowed to develop freely welterbetour.de. Between alpine meadows, limestone peaks and the Krumme Steyr, you can still feel how closely history and nature are interwoven here.

In the 1990s, the municipality reorganised itself. The development process "up the valley" focussed on cohesion, inventiveness and sustainable tourism Stylesheet.docx. A mountain farming village became a place that combines tradition and future - supported by people who shape their home in the Alps with vision.
