    Mountaineering

    Less of a trail, the Goldsteig is actually more of an enchantingly beautiful high-altitude trail, which begins below the Goldstein and winds its way along the foot of the rocky massif without significant elevation changes all the way to the Richter Grotto. Along the way, beautiful views and idyllic spots are repeatedly offered. In the original national park concept, it was almost removed from the hiking map. Now, the easy Goldsteig is marked as a mountain trail.
