    A beautiful hike that takes us to the Buchkogel. We start at the breakfast pub Stelzer Lex in Zeil near Stubenberg.

    The hike begins with a moderate ascent to the lower Wetterkreuz, from now on it climbs steadily uphill until you reach the back of the Buchkogelzug. After a short steep climb on a narrow path along the ridge, you will reach the summit of the Buchkogel. Here you will be rewarded for the effort with a magnificent view.

    Roadbook

    The hike on the Buchkogel starts at the Stelzer-Lex bed and breakfast. It begins with a moderate ascent to the lower Wetterkreuz.

    There the trail leads into the forest and climbs through woods to the ridge of the Buchkogel mountain. After a short steep climb on a narrow path along the ridge, you will reach the summit of the Buchkogel. Here you will be rewarded for the effort with a magnificent view.

    The descent first leads through mixed forests again to a crossroads, from the Gaber homestead it goes steeply downhill on a side road, before crossing another short stretch of forest.

    Below the forest, the trail leads you past meadows to a side road, which you follow parallel to the slope until you reach the Stelzer-Lex inn.

    Tips for even more hiking fun:  Rules of behaviour when hiking

    A few tips for correct and fair behavior in the forest: (Source: www.bundesforste.at)

    Hikers should avoid visits to the forest about 1.5 hours before sunrise and after sunset, as wildlife is particularly active during this time.Plastic bottles, handkerchiefs, cigarette butts & Co have no place in the forest! Please make sure that you do not leave any trash in the forest.Camping and making fire - is strictly forbidden in the forest!Basically, each person is allowed to collect 2 kg of mushrooms and berries per day in the forest for personal use. It is only forbidden if the forest owner expressly prohibits it.

    Small rucksack with water bottle (+ provisions)Sturdy footwearAppropriate clothing - preferably several layers - "onion principle"Rain and sun protectionHiking poles as requiredMobile phoneSmall first aid kitRoute descriptionBefore starting the hike, check where you can stop for refreshments, including opening times, or pack suitable provisions.
