Preparation

Make sure when choosing the route that it matches your mountain experience and fitness level. Check the weather forecast in advance. Weather in the mountains can change quickly. Always start out properly equipped (e.g. rain protection).

Check if the huts and snack stations you want to visit along the way are open. Inform someone about your chosen route and planned return before you set off.

A short forest path leads straight ahead from the "Schanz" bus stop on Karlerstraße until the end of the path is reached. Start and end are marked with large boards, and along the way you can learn interesting facts about bees and the forest.

There are a few parking options on Karlerstraße.
