Details for: Main hiking trail "belebt.bewegt" in the hiking village Göstling/Ybbs

Brief description

A high plateau route through alpine mountain forests 

From the hiking start point at the hiking host Bauernhof Ablass to the high moor, back and from there to the panoramic Sonnstein

Description

An original mountain experience in the nature reserve - a hike on three levels!

The hike starts at the high plateau of Hochreit at the hiking host Bauernhof Ablass and follows the hiking signposts towards the high moor via the Seisenbachau farm to the high valley. From there, the road continues to the impressive Hochmoor Leckermoos nature reserve, which is circled. Here on the second level, numerous natural special features can be seen and observed along the way. Surrounded by the original mountain forests, the route then leads back towards the hiking host Bauernhof & Jausenstation Ablass until about 350m before it a right turn is taken following the hiking signpost towards Sonnstein and Steinkogel. ATTENTION: If this summit variant is taken, absolute sure-footedness in the upper area is required! Because here the path leads up to Sonnstein at 1,019m, which represents the third and highest level. Alternately via forest roads and mountain paths, the way leads up to the summit. Once at the top, the panoramic view overwhelms and offers a special perspective of the surrounding mountain world (ATTENTION: sure-footedness is absolutely required in this area!). The descent initially follows the path through the forest and then continues via the forest road back to the starting point, the hiking host Bauernhof Ablass.
