Impressive hike with a large difference in altitude over the First Grebenzenhöhe. This hiking trail is a permanent IVV hiking trail.

The tour is also considered a guiding trail of the region around the mountain personality "Grebenzen" and symbolizes one of the 8 guiding offers on the subject of hiking in the adventure area of Murau.

Depending on the season, we walk through lush flower gardens with a wide variety of orchid species and rarities of lime flora. The mountain owes its name Grebenzen, which comes from the Slavic and means cock's crest, to its three mountain peaks, the highest of which is 1870m high.
