    Hiking

    Geißwand and Baalstein offer a wonderful view over the Traunsee, which can usually be enjoyed in complete solitude and silence.
    The two viewing pulpits of Geißwand and Baalstein rise exactly above Traunkrichen - through the base of which a tunnel was built that has been bypassing the center of Traunkirchen since the 1990s.
    Both summits offer easy climbing ropes in the summit area and a magnificent view of the Traunstein - Schönberg - Erlakogel panorama on the east bank of Lake Traunsee, Traunkirchen, Atlmünster and Gmunden on the west and north banks.

    Geißwand is a viewpoint in Traunkirchen, Upper Austria. It is part of a hike that also includes the Baal Stone. The hike is steep and leads to great viewpoints. You can learn more about this hike on Bergfex's website.

    Wonderful lonely summit as an alternative to the kl. Sonnstein with an almost even more beautiful view, but without an inn.
    Unsuitable as a ski tour.
    Caution ! Danger of falling in the summit area.
