    Tips

    We wouldn't have found the way up without Google Maps because Komoot doesn't show a way there. The entrance is a bit difficult to see. But after just a few meters, the path is clearly recognizable. The ascent is steep but manageable. You arrive at the Hockstein Cave below the bridge and from there you can climb the stairs to the Hockstein.
