The Greifenberg is a popular destination for hikers. The Greifenberg is a mountain massif in the Schladminger Tauern on the Styrian-Salzburg border. A medium, beautiful, scenic, and sometimes foggy hike awaits you on the Greifenberg. I found the route magnificent. Chapeau!

The distinctive triangular pyramid of the Waldhorn, as the fourth highest summit of the Schladminger Tauern, towers above the Riesachsee. The route there is long and demanding, but quite feasible for experienced summit collectors.

    Beeindruckende Berge, toller Kessel. Erst ist die Schotterstraße leicht ansteigend, die dann in einen Grasweg bis zur Kuppe übergeht. Auf dem Rastplatz hat man einen schönen Blick auf den Hochgolling (2862m). Dann geht es aber sehr steil nochmal 300 Meter zum See hoch. Wir kamen zusammen ab/zum Parkplatz auf 11,2km mit 540 Höhenmeter
