More information

Coming from Judenburg via Unzmarkt to Scheifling. Turn right here and drive towards Murau. In Niederwölz turn right to Oberwölz. Keep left here towards Pöllau am Greim. Turn right and drive along Eselsberger Weg to the Funklhütte.

From Tamsweg via Ranten (or Stadl an der Mur) drive to Murau. Continue to Niederwölz, turn left here towards Oberwölz. In Oberwölz continue to Pöllau am Greim. Turn right and drive along Eselsberger Weg to the Funklhütte.

On path no. 926 to the fork with path 928. Continue left on path 928 in the direction of Greim, over the wide sheep pastures of Funklboden to the information board“Rettelkirch Peak”. You climb unmarked onto the initially wide ridge. When the ridge narrows, you follow climbing tracks over a few ridge elevations to the forepeak (small cairn). A path also comes up here from the Funkl Scharte. Directly opposite (about 30 m higher) you can now surprisingly see the large summit cross of the Rettlkirchspitze.

The descent takes place on the ascent path.

With the BusBahnBim app from the interconnected line, timetable information is easier than ever before: all bus, train and tram connections in Austria can be queried by entering locations and/or addresses, stops or important points. The app is available as a free app for smartphones (Android, iOS) - on Google Play and in the App Store.
