Challenging hike up into the Steinernes Meer. The ascent and descent go over steep, exposed terrain. The route rewards with fantastic panoramas over the surrounding valleys and mountains up to the Hohe Tauern. The Riemannhaus is already located in the Steinernes Meer - a unique high mountain plateau. From the Riemannhaus, a variety of other peaks such as Sommerstein, Breithorn, Mitterhorn, etc., can be climbed.

Safety information

Early start and sure-footedness required

Since the entire ascent and descent to the Riemannhaus is in exposed, rocky terrain, hikers should start early to avoid the midday heat. Be sure to carry enough water for all hikers. Use sun protection and head covering. The path is partly very steep and rocky. Only recommended for hikers who are sure-footed, experienced, and have no fear of heights.

Roadbook

From the parking lot "Sandten" follow the marked path to the Riemannhaus. This initially leads over a gravel path, then rocky and partly very steep terrain. In some places there are protections by steel cables. Alpine experience, sure-footedness, and a head for heights are absolutely necessary. Due to the exposed terrain, an early start is recommended on hot days. Refreshments and overnight stays are possible at the Riemannhaus. From here, ascents of the surrounding peaks such as Sommerstein, Breithorn, Mitterhorn, etc., and access to various climbing routes and via ferratas are possible.
