Easy Hike in upper Styria

in #hiking4 years ago

Today my family hiked up a place named Schäffer-Huber Alm (https://goo.gl/maps/TbD2LxWn46fuvd4n6). A nice spot in the Pogusch Region in Styria. In Winter it's a preferred public place for toboggan rides along the road leading up to the Jausenstation (a small eatery offering simple and rustic fare).

Here's a view into the valley with the town of Kapfenberg.

There are two ways to get up there, alongside the road, means you could go there by car too. That also means it's quite easy to walk, and some sporty shoes will do. On the entrance to the forest road (Weissenbachgraben W

eg is the roads name) leading up, you can find parking spots too.

Best way is through the woods. For that trail you should have proper footwear.

Don't pick more as you need, and always leave some mushrooms to keep fungus alive.

Stay safe and enjoy your day!

Sieht nett aus! Dort muss ich auch einmal hin. :-)

Danke @schmatz! Dieser Teil gehört zu der beliebten lokalen Wanderstrecke Bründlweg, mit einigen schönen Wegen. Man kann aber auch anspruchsvollere Ziele in der Umgebung wählen, die geübten Wanderern wie du bist vmtl. mehr entsprechen.
