A moderately difficult circular hike high above Donnersbach, where the Grimming almost does not let you out of sight.

Initially winding uphill past long-established farms, the trail finally leads you through forest and across white meadows back down into the valley. Grandiose views are guaranteed and the rest stop at the ‘In keine Schublade’ storytelling centre (almost at the end of the hike) is a small and fine source of energy.

More information

From the Ennstalbundesstraße (B320) at the Trautenfels intersection drive in the direction of Irdning, Donnersbach, Donnersbachwald. In Donnersbach turn right to the recreation center.

From the parking lot you cross the road and walk along the marked hiking trail (No. 3) over several hairpin bends uphill towards Erlsberg. At the fork in the road after the farm "Moar in der Gassn", turn right to the Krapflhof farm. Continuing along the road, you will again pass two farms. Keep to the markings, then you can't miss the turnoff to the right. On a field path straight ahead to a piece of forest, turn right again at the fork. From then on, the trail leads you through the forest and across snow-covered meadows back to the village and along the sidewalk back to the starting point.

The Gasthof Krapflhof is open daily and invites you to stop in.

Take the 941 bus to the "Donnersbach Vorstatt" stop. Here is also the starting point of the hike.
