The Krummbachstein is a 1602 meter high mountain in Lower Austria. It belongs to the Rax-Schneeberg group and is the highest elevation of the Gahn; it is only separated from the Schneeberg by the Krummbachsattel. From the Krummbachstein there is a beautiful view of the Schneeberg and the Höllental.
150 meters east of the summit cross is the Alpenfreundehütte (1568 m), which was built in 1909 and is only very simply managed. The secondary summit about 500 m east of the summit cross is only slightly lower than the main summit.
On the south side of the Krummbachstein is the Naturfreundehaus Knofeleben, from which the summit can be reached in less than an hour via the so-called Schiblsteig (green marking). There are two alternatives for the last part of the trail, a forest trail to the Alpenfreundehütte (not difficult) and the direct ascent to the summit (rocks, difficulty level I−).
The mountain can also be accessed via hiking trails from the Alpleck in the east (yellow marking) and from the Krummbachsattel in the north.
