Parking information
The hike starts at the "Grüner See" car park, for which a fee is charged. To the right of the large signpost, the trail leads along, after a few minutes a sign points in the direction of the Kamplsteig. From there, the trail continues to the right on a path through the forest past the Frühstücksstein to the Klammhöhe. At Klammhöhe you have a breathtaking view of the legendary Meßnerin-Loch for the first time. Now turn right again in the direction of Meßnerin (marker 844). The entrance to the flower path is well signposted and you can borrow a walking stick there if necessary. Through the forest you reach Kamplriedl, from where you can enjoy a wonderful view of the Lamingtal valley and the Grüner See lake. Now the trail descends again until you reach a clearing and thus the end of the nature trail, where you can put down your borrowed walking stick. Along the forest path, past the Ambrosi-Bründl, you come to a fork that leads straight ahead over the "Lahner" into the Marienklamm gorge. If you turn right there, you will return directly to the valley in the Haringgraben.

Planning your desired tour properly in advance is a must.

Emergency call rescue: 144

Emergency reporting tip - give answers to six important questions: What happened? How many injured? Where did the accident happen (possibly GPS coordinates)? Who reported the accident (call-back number)? When did the accident happen? Weather at the accident site?

Proper backpacking makes many things easier: Pack heavy things first. The water bottle should always be within easy reach in a side pocket. All things that are often needed, such as sunglasses, camera or hiking map, belong on top. An emergency kit including blister plasters belongs in every rucksack and it is always advisable to put on different layers of clothing.
After the hike, be sure to stop at the coffee shop Hoamat-Kaffee for delisious, homemade pastry.
