    Tolle Tour! Der Aufstieg über die Forststraße ist zwar etwas "zäh", der obere Teil jedoch ist ein traumhafter Höhenweg. Tipp1: Gefäß mitnehmen zum Heidelbeer und Preiselbeer sammeln. Tipp 2: probiert als Abstieg den Jägersteig vor dem Grießkegerl. Ein wunderbares Steigwegerl mit herrlichen Ausblicken. Nach dem Hochstand auf der Forststraße unten dann scharf rechts und man geht eine wunderbare Halbrunde.

    Tolle Rundtour, gestern gemacht bei strahlendem Sonnenschein, leider etwas stürmisch je nach Exposition. Durch die mehrfachen Abstiege und Gegenanstiege nicht so monoton, und zwischendurch Gelegenheit sich etwas zu erholen, wenn man sportlich zügig unterwegs ist.
