 Mountain hike with a wonderful view of the Traunstein and the Almtal

 **Option 1: From St. Konrad:**
The hike starts either at the St. Konrad Dürnberg bus stop or at the parking lot right next to the B 120 still in the municipality of St. Konrad.

Follow the road, past the Dürnberg to the barrier, along the forest road for about 2 km into the forest (signposted Laudachsee). Hiking trails (trail no. 10) and forest roads take you to Jagdhaus Schrattenau (981m). The well-marked trail continues on the forest road for around 100m southwards to a gravel pit. Immediately afterwards, turn right off the forest road. However, you can also cut off the forest road just behind the hunting lodge on a marked hiking trail. Hiking trail no. 10 leads directly to the summit.
Shortly before the summit, you can branch off to the neighboring summit (Trapez).
