Heulantsch-Round, Teichalm

• We start at Teichalmsee lake right next to Holzochsen, climb over the pasture fence and turn right at “Heulantsch/Sommeralm, trail no. 745/45.
• The exit of the Teichalmmoor is now on the right below us, but we keep to the left and walk along the fence uphill towards Htl. Pierer
• Shortly after the Pierer staff house, we walk through the pasture gate and then immediately turn right onto the wide farm track (Berglerweg) towards “Sommeralm/Harrerhütte.” We can now see the Osser ahead of us.
• We go around a new house, cross several pasture bridges, and walk out to the solitary wooden hut at the top left. From here, we can already see the small bridge over the Mixnitzbach stream at the bottom right.
• As soon as we see the meadow path downhill, we turn right, cross the Mixnitzbach stream, and continue to the Harrerhütte on the other side of Sommeralmstraße.
• Passing the Harrerhütte parking lot, we now continue left on the forest path.
• Keeping parallel to Sommeralmstraße and the Mixnitzbach stream, we soon reach the forest, where we keep left at the fork in the path.
• We climb over the pasture fence and are now on the meadow in front of the Pension-Camping Holzmeister.
• We cross the meadow and the Mixnitzbach stream and reach the Pension-Camping Holzmeister.
• Above the guesthouse, we continue along the country road to the right until we reach the “Moosholt” entrance. Ahead of us, we can see the wind turbine on the Sommeralm.
• At “Moosholt,” we now take the hiking trail on the left and continue uphill towards “Sommeralm, trail no. 745.”
• We cross the slopes of the Holzmeister lifts and continue towards Sommeralm/Kerschbaumgatterl.
• Through the forest and across pastures, we come to the Kerschbaumalm cross, where we turn left and continue uphill towards “Strasseggwirt/Haberlstallalm.”
• Before the Bischofskreuz pilgrim's cross (behind the wooden fence), we turn left and continue along the pasture fence, always in the direction of “Stoahandhütte/Teichalm, trail no. 27.” Here, we have to climb over pasture fences again and again.
• Passing the mountain station of the Holzmeisterlifte, we come to a depression near the “Stoahandhütte.”
• Staying on trail no. 27, we walk over the Nestlbodner Kogel and the Grubbauer Kogel towards Heulantsch, crossing several pasture fences and small forests. And we have fantastic views in all directions.
• The last stretch to Heulantsch leads steeply uphill through the forest. From the summit cross at 1,473 m above sea level, we look to the right at Hochlantsch and behind it at Rote Wand. Directly below us lies Teichalm, and we can also see part of the lake.
• For the descent, we keep to the right and walk along the pasture fence down to the pasture gate.
• We go through the gate and across the pasture down to the “Heulantsch car park.”
• Below the Pierer hotel, we turn right onto the gravel path and walk back towards “Teichalmsee, path no. 27” to the starting point.

Around the Teichalmsee there are several places to stop for refreshments and also the possibility of boating on the lake or a round through the high moor.
