Von Kundl über Breitenbach zur Bärengrube, zum Reintalersee und nach Rattenberg

642 m
Vom Bahnhof Kundl rüber nach Breitenbach, dann auf verschiedenen Pfaden durch die Siedlungen Bichl, Vogelsang und Oberberg, bis das Rauschen des Mühlbaches (Jocher Kapelle) zu hören ist. Dann links halten und immer an der Grenze zum Steilhang entlang, an vielen Quellen vorbei, dabei schon immer der Beschilderung "Bärengrube" folgend. Dann hinauf zur Ruine der Schintelburg, und selbiger und weiteren Quellen vorbei, langsam wird es immer uriger, teilweise mit steilen Felskanten rechts und auch links, bis man die Bärengrube erreicht, eine Art zerklüftetes Plateau. Nach einer Quelle kommt eine Weggabelung, an der man sich weiter rechts hält, wenn man den Wanderweg hinab nach Kramsach bzw. zum Reintaler See und Krummsee gehen will. Wenn man etwas Aussicht haben will, sollte man sich links halten und einem unscheinbaren Forstweg folgen, der nach weniger Metern zu einer Holzhütte führt, an der man vorbeigehen und zu einem schönen Aussichtspunkt inkl. kleinem Brünnlein kommen kann. Dann geht es steil bergab mit einigen (nicht ausgeschilderten) Wegoptionen.
Die Seen sind sehr schön gelegen und laden zum Baden ein, die Brandenberger Ache ist mein Lieblingsfluss, der historische Stadtkern von Rattenberg ist auch einen Besuch wert.
Man darf sich übrigens auch an den ausgeschilderten Wegen etc. orientieren ;-) Ich habe mich primär daran orientiert, was für mich aus gegebenem Anlass geologisch-hydrogeologisch interessant war.

Rattenberg in de gidsen geafficheerd als een Historisch stadje, verwacht geen Brugge of Venetie! Bestaat uit een straat met oude huizen wel in goede staat. Gezellige winkeltje met veel glaswerk, aangenaam om te vertoeven maar niet meer dan dat. Boven het stadje bevind zicht nog een oud kasteel. Het stadje is gelegen naast de Inn. Even uitgerust en terug naar ons hotel, de benen begonnen tekenen van verlmoeidheid te vertonen, het was wel geweest vandaag!
