Name: Vom Preiner Gscheid auf die Hohe Scheibe im Naturpark Mürzer Oberland
Brand: Steiermark
Rating: 4 (3 reviews)

Open

A quiet forest and meadow hike away from the tourist crowds. Little-used, easy tour in the Mürzer Oberland Nature Park, also part of the Styria-wide trail "from glacier to wine".

The quiet side of the Preiner Gscheid. In a few minutes even on beautiful hiking days away from the crowds, a tour with wonderful close-up views of the south side of the Rax. On the Hohe Scheibe dreamlike panorama (Fischbacher Alps, Mürztal, Waldheimat, Semmering) and on weekends with a then open rustic hut just below the summit of the Scheibe.

Vom Preiner Gscheid geht es wenige Meter in Richtung NÖ, eher der gut markierte Weg rechts in den Wald abzweigt. Nun über einen Steig durch den Hochwald und über Lichtungen (hinter uns die Südseite der Rax, speziell in der Früh mit einer herrlichen Sonnenbeleuchtung) immer in südlicher Richtung bis zur Paulinenquelle.

Bald danach nicht der Abzweigung nach links zum Drahte (Tratten) kogel folgen, sondern in westlicher Richtung, zuletzt auf einem Forstweg, zur Hohen Scheibe (Gipfelkreuz, Schutzhütte).

Hier kann nun auch nach Mürzzuschlag abgestiegen (ca. 1 1/2 - 2 Stunden) oder wieder am Aufstiegsweg retourgewandert werden.

When arriving by public transport (recommended) descent from the Hohe Scheibe to Mürzzuschlag and visit the SÜDBAHN or WinterSportMuseum.

Public from Payerbach by bus to the Preiner Gscheid and if necessary from Mürzzuschlag back by ÖBB.
