Description:

This circular hike leads around the Größtenberg to the Gscheid (782m) and back to the starting point.

Hiking trail: E55

Directions:
The path initially leads flat through the forest on a forest road to a junction, where you turn left. Here the path goes slightly uphill to the Gscheid (782m), which after the forest section almost seems like an alpine pasture. Here you turn left again and hike comfortably until you reach the road at the Hollnbuchnersiedlung. On the road it goes back to the starting point of the hike.Tip:
At the Hollnbuchnersiedlung, a detour to the right to the orchid meadow (nature reserve) is recommended - especially in spring and summer.Additional information:
The circular hiking trail spoils you with a wonderful view of the beautiful mountain world, e.g. the Hohe Dirn, Schieferstein area and the Laussa wind park.
