- Directions
-
The Karbachalm cable car takes you to your starting point (L8). The first part of the hike leads downhill on trail number 75b and finally into a cool forest. You follow trail number 79 to the Althaussattel and the Althausalm. After a refreshment, you are well prepared for the ascent (trail no. 17) to the Hubertus Chapel. Here the hunters also celebrate numerous, solemn devotions. Now trail number 79 leads to the left uphill more steeply through a forest. With a little luck, you will also find chanterelles and gentlemen's mushrooms next to the path. After the ascent, the forest thins out and the oasis of peace invites you to take a short rest before heading back downhill to the Pronebnalm, where you should definitely try a Hochkönigjause and the homemade juices. From the Pronebenalm you take the path number 79, the "path of good thoughts", a narrow forest trail, to the Paussbauer. Once here, enjoy the views of Mühlbach and the Hochkönig from the panoramic terrace and then hike back to the village via the Paussenberg gallery.

Safe hiking requires advance information and preparation. Please observe the rules for correct behaviour in the mountains. Because your safety is very important to us. And don't forget to drink plenty of fluids during the tour! Take litter down into the valley. Conserve the flora and fauna. Behaviour with animals on the mountain pastures: Do not stroke or irritate cows, calves, sheep, horses etc., but behave "quite normally" and do not show any fear. Do not leave paths on alpine pastures and avoid animals at great distances. Dogs must be kept on a leash. Dogs must never chase the grazing animals, especially mother cows fear for their calves. However, if a grazing animal attacks the dog, simply let it run for its own protection.
