The last section goes through lush alpine meadows. Cows, horses, colorful flowers, and herbs will amaze little hikers. At the Steinalm, hikers are welcomed not only with delicious treats but also by various animals such as chickens or rabbits.

    The early bird....

    Those who are already up early or rather in the mountains can enjoy an alpine breakfast at the Steinalm from 9:00 a.m. with a view of Saalfelden Leogang. Please order in advance.

    Roadbook

    The starting point of the route is the Bürgerau car park in Saalfelden. From there, it first goes uphill along a shaded forest trail, then through meadows to the Steinalm. Ideal for families and those seeking relaxation. Along the hiking trail is a nature educational path that provides information about forest, alpine pasture, and limestone high alpine areas. The information boards describe both the habitats and the animal and plant life found there. A special highlight: the path leads past Kuhloch, a cave of geological significance. The Steinalm offers not only tasty regional delicacies but also typical alpine animals that keep hikers company during their rest.
