    Beautiful, challenging mountain path, rope-insured in some places.

      A challenging hiking trail also leads from the Steiner Alm to the Hochstaufen. Along with the standard route from the Padinger Alm, the ascent via the Steiner Alm is one of the easier routes up the Hochstaufen. However, several cable-secured sections make the trail on the north side of the Hochstaufen more challenging than the ascent on the south side. A minimum level of surefootedness is required. From the tree line, you can enjoy the interesting rocky scenery as well as beautiful views of the Chiemgau region with Lake Chiemsee and the Salzburger Land.
