Shortly after the MK Maiskogelbahn terminus and the Maisi Flitzer, go through a subway and follow the asphalted road - the Einödweg, until you see yellow signposts (number 37) to the left, where the actual hikingtrail begins. This leisurely forest trail leads quickly upwards in a few hairpin bends with a moderate gradient. After about 15 minutes, theview becomes more unobstructed and you reach a pasture area viaan overpass. Cross this and a flat trail, which can be boggy after rainfall, then leads to the high forest. Partly in the forest, partly on pastures,the trail climbs a few metres and finally leads through the forestin westerly direction to the “Zaglbründl”. Continue west througha beautiful high forest, and after a descent you get to the StallnerHigh Route, or take the trail leading east. On this trail you pass the Zaglgut - above the Plattenbauer - and reach the Schaufelbergstraße .Take this road back down into the valley. Walking through the pedestrian tunnel, you reach the starting point in Kaprun.
