Description

A leisurely walk - always with a wonderful view of the mountain health resort of Fischbach.

Directions

From our starting point - the village square in Fischbach - we walk slightly uphill towards the north past Veronika's Kräuterhof. After this we turn right towards Glatzhofer onto path no. 7. We follow these leisurely past flower-decorated farmhouses and enjoy the beautiful view of the mountain health resort of Fischbach and Eastern Styria. After a short break at the “Glatzhofer”, we take a leisurely walk back along the same path or extend the hike along a short, very steep path to the actual end point at the Schneidhofer Kreuz. From there we either hike back the same way or walk towards Teuflestein to the Untere Halterhütte (No. 740. From there we follow the blue “Alpsteig” marking left to Fischbach. Peter Rosegger already hiked this path. We come back to the Fischbacher Höhenstraße at Höhe of the Ofenlurger farm and go back via No. 7 to Fischbach.

A few tips on correct and fair behaviour in the forest: (Source: www.bundesforste.at )

 

Hikers should avoid visits to the forest about 1.5 hours before sunrise and after sunset, as wild animals are particularly active during this time.

 

Plastic bottles, handkerchiefs, cigarette butts etc. have no place in the forest! Please make sure that you do not leave any rubbish in the forest.

 

Camping and lighting fires are strictly forbidden in the forest!

 

In principle, every person is allowed to pick 2 kg of mushrooms and berries per day for personal use. It is only prohibited if the forest owner expressly forbids it.
