More information

Ennstalbundesstraße (B320) - Haus im Ennstal:

valley station Schladminger Tauern cable car (above the catholic church in Haus im Ennstal)
valley station Hauser Kaibling cable car (directly next to the main road)

The great difference in altitude can be comfortably overcome with the Schladminger Tauern cable car or Hauser Kaibling cable car & chair lift Quattralpina. From the top station of the cable car, the path leads along the Schafsinn-Rundweg to the Rossfeldsattel. From there follow the signs. In approx. 45 min. you reach the Bärfallspitze and enjoy the wonderful panoramic view into the valley. The descent is via trail no. 780 to the Kaiblingalm. From there it is a comfortable forest path back to the top station.

If you want to "win" a double summit victory, the tour starts from the cable car mountain station over the Hauser Kaibling summit (2,015 m) and on to the Rossfeldsattel and from there up to the Bärfallspitze.

Postbus (L900) - Exit: Haus Ort oder Hauser Kaibling Seilbahn
