- Description
-
The ascent of about 1,200 metres with a medium level of difficulty from Fürth or Aufhausen is therefore always worthwhile - not only for adults, as the mountain is considered to be very family-friendly. Culinary rewards await you at the top of the mountain hut, and if you are too tired for the descent afterwards, simply take the Schmittenhöhe cable car down to Zell am See - a viewing pleasure in itself.
- Directions
-
The starting point of the tour is either in Fürth or Aufhausen. From the respective starting point, follow trail no. 8 over Dürnberg. At the fork, turn left onto trail no. 8A and continue along this trail to Breiteck Alm. Now the trails nos. 50 and 58 lead further up to the Schmittenhöhe.
The way back is via the same route or comfortably with the Schmittenhöhe gondola to Zell am See and by bus or train back to the starting point.
