The journey to Tauplitz is best planned with google.at/maps. From here you can take the 4-seater chairlift to the high plateau.

By car, you can get to the Tauplitzalm from Bad Mitterndorf via the Tauplitzalm Alpine Road (toll).

Start at the mountain station of the 4-seater chairlift in a westerly direction past the Hotel Hierzegger. The ascent to the 1,765 meter high Schneiderkogel takes place via the west side. It is a summit climb of the rather easy kind without much effort. And even if the one or other drop of sweat falls: The dream view is worth every step. The descent is on the east side via the slope and back to the starting point.
A visit to the small mountain church on the Tauplitzalm is worthwhile. With its characteristic roof shape and stained glass windows, it is the perfect place for an inner retreat.
