Description

From the Großachen bridge, walk to the roundabout and follow the Hinterkaiserweg. With a view to the Niederkaiser, you walk past the football ground, a carpentry and a small settlement. After the large farm surrounded by meadows, take the next turn-off. Cross a small bridge and walk uphill to Broatleiten.  A hiking trail leads along the small farm and takes you beside meadows to Bärnstetten. After Aggstein's Schnaps-Erlebnis (show & experience tour!), a subway brings you to the Gasteiger Straße and back to the starting point at the Großache.
