Description

The Karrösten geology trail offers a fascinating journey through the geology of this region. Along the forest trail to the Karröster Alm, 11 educational boards provide in-depth knowledge about the geological features. These boards offer insights into the history of the landscape, the formations and rock strata that characterize this region. Another surprise awaits hikers on the way back along the forest trail: a viewing platform with a sensational panoramic view. From here, visitors can admire the breathtaking beauty of the surrounding mountains and landscape. The Karrösten geological trail is therefore not just a hike through nature, but also a journey through time and the geology of this unique region.
