Hike Description:
Next to Intersport Flory you will
hike along the road until, shortly beyond the "Buschhäusl", a narrow
path to the left and a bridge take you across the Hammerbach. Continue
along the road as far as Gästehaus Herrmann. Here you will either take
the shortcut, which leads to the right of Gästehaus Herrmann and uphill
along a steep forest path until, at a cattle grid, you come back to the
road in front of the Reithof.
Your hike is a little easier if you
continue on the road to Gasthof Reithof – with splendid views of
Filzmoos. Before Gasthof Reithof, branch off to the right and follow the
paved road to the Weitenhaushof. Direclty next to the Weitenhaus, you
will branch off to the right and hike along a moderately steep forestry
lane, past a small pond to the Weitenhausalm. From the Weitenhausalm,
you initially follow the forestry road, making a right after the first
curve. The narrow footpath takes you steadily uphill across open alpine
pastures as far as the Nösslerriedel (1,645 m). Greeting you at the
Nösslerriedel is your first view of the Dachstein massif. To the left,
above a small hunter's hut, you will hike along the path across open
alpine pastures and down to the Bachlalm (ca. 30-minute walk).
From the Bachlalm, you can either walk or ride the hiking bus back to Filzmoos.
