This approx. 10 km long walk in Bad Goisern am Hallstättersee takes you "Across the sky" to the Rathlucken Hütte and on to the Ewige Wand. Let yourself be enchanted by the mystical forest and enjoy the unique panorama!
The tour starts directly at Tourismusbüro Bad Goisern. Go right along Kirchengasse and after the Gasthof Hotel Moserwirt turn right again into Josef-Putz-Straße. After a few minutes' walk, turn left into Hörmannsbergweg for a few metres before turning left again onto a forest path and finally arriving at a house.
Here the so-called Gimsenweg leads you right across fields to the village of Primesberg. Enjoy the beautiful view over the Goiserertal and then follow the road. At the Höllgraben crossroads, turn right uphill and then take the forest path towards Himmelbauer. Once you reach Himmelbauer, take the forest path "Übern Himmel" on the left to Rathlucken Hütte. A short break to recharge your batteries on the sunny terrace would be worthwhile here.
Continue along the high and legend trail. Take enough time for the mystical forest full of legends and stories! Enjoy the incredible panorama of Bad Goisern and the surrounding mountains before tackling the descent via the Anzenbergstraße forest road.
A small hiking trail takes you directly to the B145 at the entrance to the village of Weißenbach. Take the footpath and cycle path on the left, past the Jodschwefelbad railway station. Cross the B145. The Josef-Eidenberger-Weg leads you behind the Vivea Gesundheitshotel into the village of Posern. Continue through the small park, along Feuerbachgasse and follow the Primesbergweg back down into the valley. The field path takes you from "Sydlerfeld", via Schötzenbauer, to Josef-Putz-Straße and back to the starting point.
