De tour

At the beginning of the tour, a good forest road is the order of the day. But then you are well warmed up when it continues over steep steps in impressive alpine surroundings towards the summit. At the top, you can collect your reward, because a fantastic panoramic view opens up from here.


Routebeschrijving

From the Riedleralm barrier, follow the forest road to the Ebenbachalm. Always keep to the right of the Ebenbach stream. Shortly after the hunting lodge you climb uphill through sparse forest to the dilapidated Zettlerhütte. This is followed by a flat area before the next ascent to an alpine pasture awaits you. Over stepped terrain it goes medium steep, before the degree steep, towards the summit.

The subsequent descent is via the ascent route, or you cross the Ebenbach shortly before the hunting lodge and descend on the left side of the stream. Either way a pleasure.

Start

From the Ennstalbundesstraße (B320) turn off at the Trautenfels junction in the direction of Irdning, Donnersbach, Donnersbachwald. Through the village of Donnersbach and another 12 km to Donnersbachwald. Past the Riesneralm and about 3.5 km to Hinterwald to the barrier Riedleralm.
