The Eisenerzer Reichenstein is a popular destination for hikers and mountaineers. It is a mountain in the Eisenerzer Alps in the Austrian state of Styria. It lies south of the Styrian Erzberg near the town of Eisenerz. A medium, beautiful, scenic, and sometimes foggy hike awaits you on the Eisenerzer Reichenstein. I found the route magnificent. Chapeau!

After the strenuous stages of the past few days, the path grants us a breather today. Only the descent to Trofaiach remains to be managed. But beware, the rocky trail from Reichhals to Krumphals is still quite challenging!

It is a long way from the Sonnschienhütte to the Präbichl. And the big challenge comes only at the very end: we have to climb 900 meters in altitude to the Reichensteinhütte. It is worth considering whether it might be better to split the stage at the Leobnerhütte or at the Präbichl.
