This popular short hike leads from the market town of Haus up the Hauserberg to the Dirtlerhof.
A winter walk that gives you a great overview. From the village of Markt Haus, this hike leads you up to the Dirtlerhof on the Hauserberg. From there, you can overlook the Ennstal valley across to Weißenbach and the Birnberg, with the village of Markt Haus lying directly before you. The route follows the driveway and is therefore technically very easy, although you do gain 260 meters in altitude on the way to the Dirtlerhof. Back in Markt Haus, a stop at one of the cafés or restaurants is highly recommended.
