roadblock: Sperre aufgrund von Forstarbeiten

 Time period: 08.07.2026 - 31.07.2026 Description: The forest road to the Kulmspitz is closed until July 31, 2026. Hikers can currently only access the area via Hiking Trail No. 1!

You can reach the Kulmspitz via the S350 and S306 mountain bike trails, but only from the “back,” that is, via Radstatt/Almsplatzl or via Oberwang (unfortunately, the loop via the S350 is not possible).

 **Beautiful round-trip from Kulm-inn to the lookout tower at mount Kulm and on to the Radstatt-chapel.**

 We start our tour at the Kulm-Inn ("Gasthof Kulm") above the village of Oberwang and take the hiking-path no. 4 in the direction to "Kulmspitze", which we reach after a short climb. At the peak we can enjoy the 360° panorama from the lookout-tower Kulmspitz (1095 m).
We continue hiking on path no. 4 to the Radstatt-chapel. From there on we follow path no. 5 until we reach "Riedschwandt". Path no. 3 leads us back to Kulm-Inn.
