Description

Depending on the season, we walk through lush flower gardens with a wide variety of orchid species and rarities of lime flora. The mountain owes its name Grebenzen, which comes from the Slavic and means cock's crest, to its three mountain peaks, the highest of which is 1870m high.

Directions

The Grebenzen-round runs via the Pfaffentritt up to the Dreiwiesenhütte. From there we continue to the 1st Grebenzenhöhe (with summit climb), where we can enjoy the view of St. Lambrecht. After this vantage point we downhill to the Grebenzenhaus and on to Maria Schönanger. From the pilgrimage church we walk along the Stations-way to the starting point St. Lambrecht.
