L5 Dirn - Sonnkogel Trail

The route starts at Reichraming Train Station, which is located slightly outside the village, to the left after the Enns bridge. We walk along the Enns into the village and cross the Reichramingbach shortly before the elementary school. We walk uphill towards Gschliffner Höhe, following hiking trail no. 35, following the road until it splits at 3.6 kilometers walked. We keep right, steeply uphill over meadows and short forest passages until we reach Rohrbachgrabenstraße, which we continue along.

At kilometer 5.4, the road splits and a forest road begins, leading us up to Hamberg farm. Now it’s 1.5 km along the road to the second parking lot of the Anton Schosser Hut, which we reach after a total of 10.7 kilometers. From here, we can continue to Hohe Dirn; the summit is reached in about 10 minutes. Returning past the Schosser Hut, it goes briefly downhill and then along a ridge to Sonnkogel, the highest point of the route. Hiking trail no. 33 leads us down from the summit and transitions into trail no. 467 and then trail no. 30. This leads us partly over less frequented paths into the Gfallnau. Some sense of orientation is needed as the markings are sometimes hard to see here. Passing a wildlife enclosure, we meet trail no. 35 again and follow it back the way we came to Reichraming Train Station.
