Description

This tour starts with a comfortable ascent on the Astbergbahn. Once at the top, you can first enjoy the wonderful view of the Wilder Kaiser.

Then start your hike in front of the playground on the left downhill towards Hollenauer Kreuz. Follow the easy and wide path until you reach the junction "Schiabfahrt - Fußweg Asten". Continue tot the right and follow the signs for 'Astberg / Blattlalm'. The trail now leads through the forest around the Astberg.

In the middle of the path there is a viewing point with a lonely bench where you can take a short break. Keep right at the 'Astenwald' junction.

Back at the Astberg, children can explore the Pony Alm as well as the playground. Adults can relax at the Kaiserkino cinema.
