Description of the

One of these lesser-known routes leads over the Bergwerkskogel (1781 m / 5843 ft above the Adriatic Sea) and a beautiful connecting ridge to the Rettenkogel (1780 m / 5840 ft). The almost 1300 m (4265 ft) of altitude to be overcome make this hike quite a demanding one. However, the effort is rewarded with wonderful views over the Salzkammergut and far beyond.

Safety instructions
Safety instructions

At the beginning and the end of the tour, the hike leads over a forest road (hiking trail 891) that has been completely destroyed by floods in parts and is de facto impassable, which is why this part of the hike should not be underestimated! For the insured passages, a via ferrata set is definitely advisable in terms of safety!
