Description

For leisurely hikers!

The start of this hike is the mountain station of the Gipfelbahn-Fulseck. Before setting off, you should pause to consciously enjoy the view - the sight of southern Gastein Valley and the Hochkönig Massif to the north is simply glorious. The hike leads us along the Biotope Trail, following a ridgeline to the Arltörl - one of the oldest passes into Gastein Valley. After a short descent, we will come to the Heumoosalm. Following a brief refreshment break, we will walk along a mushroom theme path through the forest and towards the mid-station. Display boards erected amid this idyllic nature describe mushrooms that commonly occur in the area. They also provide tips for collecting and cooking them.
