Steyrbergerreith Circular Trail (Circular Hiking World Hinterstoder)

You can shorten this trail tremendously by using the cable car, which takes you 800m up to the Hutterer Plateau. Alternatively you can walk up from the bottom station along the shady northern slopes – partly following the ski slopes along farm roads, partly on narrow paths.

From the top station of the cable car (the actual beginning point of this trail) you can take an easy stroll to the eastern part of the plateau, the Edtbauernalm alpine meadow & hut. Follow the path on the outer edge of the ridge and experience the spectacular view from the protruding rock – called chamoix seat – into the depths of the valley. After a short stay in the “raised hide” as hunters call it, you continue downhill. Parallel to your path, which is has been cut into the mountain, the slope drops steeply. The wild & romantic path leads into a farm road at the bottom of the Rot Valley. Turn right after approx. 2 km and follow a path through the forest and up over an alpine meadow to one of the most original alpine huts still in operation today – the Steyrsbergerreith alpine hut. Forest paths lead you back downhill to the alpine restaurant Almgasthof Baumschlagerberg situated in the municipal area of Vorderstoder. Follow the tar-road for a short period before the road merges with the Stoder Valley Panorama Trail to lead you back to the village centre of Hinterstoder along easy gravel roads.
