Fountain with mountain spring water — Fusch an der Großglocknerstraße

Highlight • Rest Area

Directly at the hiking car park (opposite) is this fountain with cool mountain water to drink. Those who hike from Fusch can arrive with an empty drinking bottle. Neat toilets right next door.

Weir in the Salzburg region

Highlight • Structure

Here rises a large weir, so you can imagine how much water and debris comes down during the snowmelt. The way down is worthwhile

Hirzbachalm

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Beautiful and quiet Almtal. After the ascent from Fusch you will find two small benches with an atmospheric view of the Hochalm to pause or rest in absolute calm.

Gleiwitzer Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The hut's landlady, Antje, is a wonderful person and cooks perfectly. Everything else is just perfect, too. A small, cozy hut with maximum comfort and a feel-good atmosphere. A prime spot to enjoy sunrises!

Several hiking trails meet on the 3,271-meter-high Brandlscharte, including the Glocknerrunde long-distance hiking trail. The view is fantastic and you can climb from the notch to the Rettenzink.

August 8, 2022,Fusch - Imbachhorn - Rettenzink - Gleiwitzerhütte - Fusch
Despite the not exactly perfect hiking weather (visibility mostly below 50m and continuous drizzle) dared this relatively demanding tour - and not a bit disappointed!
The path to the Ponyhofalm is rather moderately exciting, but then it really starts. The Imbachhorn was difficult to climb, primarily due to the path trampled by cows and sheep. The mixture of mud, shit, …
