Start only in safe weather – in fog you can easily get lost. **Quality of experience:** **** **Recommended season:** - April - May - June - July - August - September - October **Properties:** - Multi-stage route - Scenic - Refreshment stops available **Description:** “*Every thought of the big world, every sorrow vanishes here. Nearer to its creator, the contemplation of nature in the large fills us with heavenly feeling ...*” These words can be found in the diaries of Archduke Johann (1782–1859), who crossed the Tote Gebirge several times. On this stage, you will find them confirmed. **Directions:** From the **Loser Hut**, walk on the wide path next to the toll road to the topmost parking lot at Loser Alm. From its rear edge, continue on the Karl-Stöger-Steig (No. 201) with the sign “Augstwiese – Appelhaus”. At the following fork, stay on the right path which soon crosses rocky terrain and extensive mountain pine fields. Through the southeast flank of the Vorderer Schwarzmooskopf, you arrive with constant ups and downs at the **Hochklapfsattel** (1,487 m). From there, the trail No. 212 coming up from Altaussee joins from the right. Follow this path to the left and reach above the tiny Augstwiesen lake the lower edge of the wide grass hollow of the **Augstwiesen** (1,345 m). From the junction there, go right (marker No. 201) towards “Appelhaus” to the alpine huts and then uphill through the Henar forest. After about 3.5 km you reach the **Albert-Appel-Haus** (1,660 m) and thus the connection to stage 21 of the Salzkammergut BergeSeen Trail. 4:00 h **Tip:** **Note**: Those who follow the left path (212) from the junction at Augstwiesenalm reach – passing the hunting lodge “Füchsleins Not” – the huts of Wildenseealm (1,521 m) in 45 minutes. **Safety guidelines:** - In alpine terrain, be aware of the danger of falling rocks. - Until early summer, you may encounter steep snowfields or firn ruts there – especially in case of icing, there is acute danger of falling and thus life-threatening conditions! - Due to storm damage, forestry work, or construction measures, some trail sections may be temporarily difficult or impossible to pass. - Cows on the alpine pasture are often curious. Due to mother cow husbandry, they develop a strong drive to protect their calves. Move calmly on cow pastures, keep at least 20 m distance from the animals and never pet calves! In case of threatening behavior (scraping, stamping) slowly move backwards (do not turn your back). Keep dogs on a leash; they must not bark at or chase cows. In case of an attack, you must definitely let them off the leash. **Equipment:** For all stages, you need hiking or mountain boots with profiled rubber soles as well as wind- and rainproof clothing. Spare clothes for changing and a small first aid kit should also be in your backpack. How much provisions you pack depends on the number of opportunities to stop. In any case, you should take enough to drink. Trekking poles are especially helpful when going downhill. **Additional information:** With kind provision of the text by the [KOMPASS](https://kompass.at) publishing house and Wolfgang Heitzmann.
