The path initially leads to the Burgstaller, then through the forest and via a steep section, ultimately bringing you to the Stornalm, an unstaffed mountain hut. Now it will be time for your final assault on the summit of the 2,049 meters-high Kufstein. You will then make your way back down via the Grafenbergsee and Ahornsee, then past the Kneipp spa before finally returning to the hotel.

This is a hike accompanied by water in abundance, leading via an alpine trail known as the "Höll" to the idyllically situated Riesachsee. The trail itself demands a true head for heights, otherwise we suggest using the forestry road instead, which also doubles as the way back.

Snow in summer? How about a walk to the Seethalerhütte on the Dachstein.
You will first ride up the mountain on the Dachstein gondola. If you stay 2 or more nights, this ride is included free of charge with the Schladming-Dachstein Sommercard. Your snowy walk will then lead you along a maintained path to the Seethalerhütte. Finally, you will return along the same route.
