More information

From the Ennstalbundesstraße (B320) turn off at the Trautenfels junction in the direction of Irdning, Donnersbach, Donnersbachwald and drive approx. 10 km to Donnersbach. The tennis court is located a short distance after entering the village on the right side.
Free parking at the tennis court.

At the tennis court, cross the road and walk along the sidewalk for about 200 m back towards the beginning of the village. Here you change again to the other side of the road and cross the bridge. After the bridge turn right and walk along the marked hiking trail no. 4 or 5 over some small inclines but also flat sections to Raumberg. The way back follows the same route.

In winter, caution is advised even on seemingly easy hikes. In shady areas, the ground can be slightly icy, and there may be avalanche danger below slopes. Mountaineering is therefore primarily a matter of personal responsibility – even more so in winter. Tourist associations and avalanche warning services assume no liability whatsoever based on the information provided.

Your equipment should ideally include:

Ankle-high, warm shoes. Waterproof, warm shoes with a treaded sole are ideal. Optional: Gaiters for additional snow protection.
A hood and warm clothing, ideally layered. Don't forget a change of clothes for longer winter hikes: a wind and waterproof jacket and trousers.
A small backpack with a warm drink in a thermos and snacks as needed
Sun protection
Cell phone
First aid kit
Optional: crampons/snow spikes (snow chains for shoes), telescopic hiking poles for better grip and balance.

A little off the beaten path is a game feeding station. During the Christmas vacations you can watch live. Info and registration with family Huber-Kitzer under T +43 664/3993488.
