Description

First, you calmly take the Reitherkogelbahn cable car up to the top station. Now you hike past the Nisslhof on the left and follow the signs "Kerschbaumer Sattel". At the junction, turn right towards "Hechenblaikenalm" and follow the trail to the "Hechenblaikenalm" (approx. 1 h 30 min). Here you will also find the Wildsauhütte (place to rest and eat).

A little later you reach the "Hochlindalm" and after another ascent the "Kohlgrubenalm" (approx. 2 h 30 min).

From here, the hike leads one last time uphill to the top station of the Wiedersbergerhornbahn. Downhill you go again by gondola and return to the starting point by bus 620.
