Turn-by-turn directions

The starting point for this hike is Großsölk - the “Koller” estate. From there, a beautiful forest path leads to the “Adambauerhütte” and “Schönwetterhütte”, which are open in summer. The trail continues to the small and rustic “Walchlingerhütte” with a feel-good factor. There you can fortify yourself with delicious desserts and culinary delicacies. The "Ennstaler Steirerkrapfen" with "Steirerkäse", savory and potatoes are a particular highlight. A steep slope takes you to the “Schleinhütte”, a mountain hut built from Sölker marble. Follow the same path back to the Koller farmstead.

Alternatively, you can keep to the right after the Schleinhütte and climb over the Blockfeldspitz to the Gumpeneck!

The current weather forecast should be checked before every hike. Helpful information about the weather and the region can often be obtained from local people involved in tourism.

For activities in the mountains we recommend sturdy shoes and rain protection. You should not forget enough drinks and perhaps a snack. For the orientation in the terrain a suitable hiking map should be carried along. In the nature park house you can buy these for 1 €.
