Mountaineering

Very nice and varied ascents and descents, plenty of rest options at the top with a view of Watzmann, Untersberg and Hochkalter.

Mountaineering

Once you have reached the Hochalmscharte via the trail, it goes over the open plateau, slightly falling, over to the Hochalm. Impressive view down into the Wimbach valley and across to the western side of the Watzmann.
