From the Austriahütte on route 672 through the Edelgries, then on route 673, which is rope insurance in the upper part, to the Edelgrieshöhe. Up here you have a magnificent view of the valley towards Ramsau. Continue on path 618 to the Guttenberghaus.

Mountaineering

The way to the Edelgriesshöhe is characterized by loose gravel. I therefore recommend trekking poles for ascent and descent for this section.

Mountaineering

The upper section is truly only suitable for experienced hikers. You need a head for heights and not be afraid to use your hands to secure yourself on the rope while hiking. But the view up there is very nice :)
