Tour description
The tour
Map, elevation profile & further information
Starting from the Waldcafé Liftstüberl, the path first leads past the valley station of the Rittisberg. Then keep left and follow the path towards the forest. There, the signpost „Rittisbergrundweg“ points the way to the east.
The narrow gravel path runs pleasantly along the edge of the forest and offers a particularly beautiful route thanks to the shade-providing trees. Follow the path until you reach the Tischlbergerweg and turn left there towards the Dachsteinmassiv.
Accompanied by the Karbach, the path continues to the main road. There, walk westwards on the pavement back towards the Rittisberg. Then cross the road to the left to return to your starting point, the Waldcafé Liftstüberl.
