Trail number: K93
The path through the Erlgraben then takes you to the Grassnerkreuz and further on a footpath through beautiful forests to Sattelhald. Hopefully you've taken enough to drink, as there are few places to stop for refreshments on this hike.
From there, continue to the Gradnalm with its alpine hut, which is only open intermittently. Here the view to the Kremsmauer is overwhelming.
On the same path you hike back to the Sattelhald and downhill to the Krems spring, where the Krems gushes out of the rock as a small water body. If you follow the course of the Krems, you will return to the starting point via the Pfustergut (beautiful wrought iron cross) in the village of Micheldorf.
The Gradnalm mountain hut is open from 1 May to 31 October. Drinks and snacks are available at weekends. For groups, catering is also available during the week on request.
Currently only open in good weather!
