Elevation Trail The charming elevation trail in the area of Lahnerkogel. © Heinrich BaureggerPhoto: Heinrich Bauregger, Rother Bergverlag

First slightly downhill, then uphill again and further on level to the alpine village Durchkaseralm (a good 30 minutes, detour halfway to the somewhat lower, rustic Brennhütte possible, which is directly on the nature trail). From the Durchkaseralm the path continues in the same direction until it turns west after a short walk.
