More information

From the B145 Salzkammergut-Straße, take the Tauplitz/Wörschachwald exit and follow the signs to Wörschachwald. At the fork in the road in Wörschachwald, turn right towards Dachsteinblick and follow the road to the end at the Gasthaus Dachsteinblick.

From the inn you first follow path #289 towards Gindlhorn. At the forest road intersection before the Gindlhorn junction, turn left onto the forest path (#289) and walk steadily, slightly uphill to the Brandangeralm. You then hike eastwards around the Brandangerkogel and reach the Jagerbichl crossroads. Further on path #289 there are always beautiful views of Pürgg and Trautenfels Castle. You reach a forest path, which you hike along briefly and from the following bend along a forest path to the Gindlhorn crossroads and back to the starting point. Alternatively, you can also hike to the Schröflhütte and the beautiful surrounding alpine pastures and from there along path #289 back to the inn. If you want, you can take the Gindlhorn (1,259 m) with you on the way back.

A detour to the Kleine Hörndl is worthwhile.

Gasthaus Dachsteinblick cannot be reached by public transport. Closest option is the bus/train in Klachau (train station Tauplitz). From there you need a taxi to get to the starting point.

Parking at the Gasthaus Dachsteinblick.
