Description

Walk along a steeper path from Plattenrain to the catered mountain hut Hochastner Alm. Then walk along the mountain ridge along a beautiful forest path directly to the catered mountain hut Venetalm (Signposted as “Venet-Rundwanderweg” [Venet circular route]). Optionally, you can hike from the Venetalm to the Imsterbergerkreuz in another 45 minutes (one way). To return, turn left at the first fork and continue to walk along this path back to Hochaster Alm and then continue to walk on the same path as on your way up initially. After the fork keep left and the forest road will take you back to the un-catered mountain hut Timler Alm and to the starting point.
