Rock Window (Fenster) on Naturfreundesteig

Highlight • Natural Monument

After a rock climb, it is surprisingly above one: the rock gate. The passage of the window is another highlight of the climb. The window is about 120 meters below the summit of the Traunkirchner Kogel.

Naturfreunde-Steig Ladder Passage (Traunstein-Laudachsee Nature Reserve)

Highlight • Climb

Inexperienced hikers can secure themselves at this point with a via ferrata set. Although I do not recommend the Naturfreunde-Steig for inexperienced hikers!
