We leave Bad Mitterndorf in a southeasterly direction to get out of the town via path number 19. Comfortably and flat it goes for us now along past the train station in an easterly direction wauf path number 2 to Krungl, one of the lucky places in the Ausseerland. The village is built on a burial ground, which was first assigned to the Slavs, but could also already be Bavarian. The finds are irreplaceable for the oldest history of Styria, because the archaeological traces of the settlement of the Alps in the Middle Ages are still quite modest. Thus, the presence of the Alpine Slavs, evidenced by numerous field and place names, and the immigration of the Bavarians from the middle of the 8th century can hardly be traced. Among the most important sources from this period are still the burial grounds of Krungl.
From Krungl we follow trail number 1, which leads us directly to the outlet of the ski jump at Kulm. Since this stage of the hiking route "From Glacier to Wine" is one of the shortest, as we take the chairlift to ascend to the Tauplitzalm, we should take time to visit the Kulm ski jump.
From the Kulm we now go directly to the village of Tauplitz to the valley station of the chairlift, which takes us in 2 stages (Tauplitz Bergbahn I and II) to the alpine pasture of the same name with its numerous accommodation options - from rustic huts to hotels. All these have one thing in common besides the coziness: here we are also advised in the best possible way about our next stage to the Hochmölbinghütte.
