Continue leaving the Steyrursprung to your right, cross a high alpine forest along a gravel path crossing the forest road a few times to the Poppenalm (hunting lodge). Continue on flat terrain to the end of the valley, then steep up to a sparsly grown forest ridge. The path is partly secured with steel ropes, surrounded by romantic rock scenery and leads up over a 100m long gravel fiels to the Salzsteigjoch. A stunning view back over the Stodertal valley is the well earned price for the hardship. To the south of the pass (on the Styrian side) the trail continues softly downhills over pastures and through a sparse larch forest to the Leisteralmhütte. Now continue either direction Tauplitzalm along trail nr. 216/218, down to the Schwarzensee lake, then above the Steirersee lake and passing several alpine huts until you reach the “Alpine Village Centre“. From here you can either take the chairlift or walk along the toll road to get to the village of Tauplitz. In July, August and September bus transfers are offered from the Tauplitzalm to Hinterstoder! Trail-Nr: 209a, 216 For hunting reasons, these routes are from 15.9. - 1.10. blocked every year!
