    Well-marked, alpine climb from the Adamekhütte in the direction of the Hochkessel and then on to the Hopfbürglhütte. Sure-footedness and alpine experience necessary, there are several rope-secured passages that lead through the vertical wall. Should only be committed with the appropriate knowledge.

      The Linzerstieg is such a rewarding climb. Starting from the Adamekhaus towards the southwest, always keep to the right. Over the gravel mountains you go into the Steinerne Gletscher, which leads higher and higher. Then the Windleger Scharte, Reißgangscharte and the upper Hochkesseleck begin, rewarding the challenging stairs on rock faces - partly upwards, partly crossing on the upper side - with a fantastic view.
      Certainly not recommended in rain, snow and fog! In sunshine, however, it was a great pleasure to then take the Linzer Stieg down towards Filzmoos. At the Rinderalmen, the path meanders along the torrent, picturesque and gentle.
      Perhaps not for beginners - without a helmet (!) and via ferrata set, hopefully only very experienced mountaineers will want to go there. But the reward was waiting at the Oberhofalm in the form of Johannis-Schorle and a very passable Kaiserschmarrn, served by a super-amazing waiter.
