Brandstätterkogel

 Wer möchte kann kurz vor dem Törl noch einen Abstecher zum Peters Bründl machen, um sich dort mit Quellwasser zu erfrischen.

Am Brandstättertörl angekommen, genießt man die Aussicht bereits auf den Hochreichart und den Eisenerzer Alpen.

Von hier sind es noch ca. 30 Minuten bis zum Gipfel. Der Brandstätterkogel ist ein wunderbarer Aussichtsberg mit sportlichen 1000hm.

Der gesamte Weg ist gut markiert und leicht begehbar.
