Viehbergalm - Miesbodensee

Right at the beginning you hike through the romantic stoves, a gorge that "cuts through" the two mountains Stoderzinken and Kamm, and in the middle of which the Gröbminger brook falls down. After about an hour and a half you reach the Viehbergalm, which is 1445m above sea level. The difference in altitude is 565m. Then it goes on for about 25 minutes until you reach the Miesbodensee. The Miesbodensee is a special scenic gem of the Dachstein plateau. The almost circular moor lake is surrounded by an extensive swingrass. 

Take a break at the mountain huts and enjoy a typical alpine picnic!

Kneipp facility. In the district Lend there is a parking area, which is the starting point for our tour to the Viehbergalm.

Safety information

Safety on the mountainside: changes in the weather, sudden fall in temperature, thunder storms, wind, fog and snow fields are all objective dangers and require the correct behaviour whilst underway. the landlords of the huts are all very knowledgeable about the mountains and can give you good tips about the weather and the routes. Insufficient equipment, exaggerated opinion of ones capabilities, frivolousness, poor health condition and a false evaluation of the situation can lead to a critical situation. In thunder storms: summits, crest-sites and safety rope aids are to be avoided.
