- Description
-
Ascent with the Westgipfelbahn (free for JOKER CARD holders) to the Schattberg Westgipfel. From there start in a southerly direction, first downhill, then along the path with a slight to moderate ascent to the first peak, the Stemmerkogel. A somewhat rocky descent in a south-westerly direction. Were 2 paths meet, continue straight on until you reach the second peak - the Saalbachkogel. From there, descend in the direction of Seetörl (partly over scree). Leave the two Hacklberg lakes on the left - perhaps after a short rest - and continue towards Hacklberg Alm. Return via the path that starts behind the hut to the third peak, the west peak of the Schattberg. Descent with the Westgipfelbahn gondola.
