Arrive in Abersee on Lake Wolfgangsee.
Start your trip by crossding the lake to St. Wolfgang with its famous altar and lovely town houses. Walk on the Saddle walk to one of the hidden gems of the Salzkammergut, the small mountain lake, Schwarzensee, idyllically nestling in the midst of the surrounding summits and an alpine pasture. Return through a gorge and along the lakeside to the hotel.
From St. Gilgen walk up to the solitary farm Kühleiten. Downhill to Tiefbrunnau valley and then again slightly ascending to Schafbach Alm. Take the forest lane into the western part of the Osternhorn mountains and walk up to Genneralm where you will stay for the next two days.
Today you walk up to the name giver of the Osterhorn mountains. Enjoy scenic views of the summits Dachstein, Watzmann, Hohe Tauern and the turquoise waters of Lake Wolfgangsee. Horses and cattle graze on the plateau you cross on your way to the summit.
Deep gorges and valleys cut through the Osterhorn mountains and on the green slopes cattle grazes. Enjoy the contrasts between wilderness and harmoniously tamed nature.
Beautiful walk through idyllic Bluntautal valley. Steep rock walls emerge to the right and to the left, in between a tranquil valley with blue green lakes. Up you walk to Stahl house, an alpine cabin with magnificent panorama. One short climb and you stand on the summit of Jenner opposite to the stunning Watzmann and deep mysterious Lake Koenigssee. Take the cable car down to the valley.
Tour completed, individual departure or extra days.
