First, you pass the Glasnerhütte (place to stop for refreshments) on a gravel road that gently climbs past some weekend houses until you enter a forest. This section runs parallel to the Voralpenweg 404 as well as hiking trail E33. After about 100 m, turn left onto a gravel path that leads into a gently ascending pasture area. After the mountain station of the ski lift, you reach the high plateau of Glasenberg. At the summit cross (971 m), a bench invites you to rest. Here, you will find a magnificent view of the Hallermauern, the Sengsengebirge, and the mountain world of the Kalkalpen National Park. The ridge trail (E33a) continues over natural flower and herb meadows to a wooden shed, where you turn right onto a marked forest road. Follow this until the Durchlaufner Sattel, where there is another beautiful panoramic view of Maria Neustift and the surrounding mountains. The path leads left downhill to the Durchlauf farmhouse. From there, you hike on a farm road for about 30 minutes back to the starting point at the parking lot. Hiking trail to the Glasenberg summit: E33 Hiking trail from the summit back to the starting point: E33a **Tip:** The sunrise at Glasenberg is special.

An der Hütte besteht die Möglichkeit, das E-Bike zu laden und am SB-Automaten gibt es auch außerhalb der Öffnungszeiten kühle Erfrischungsgetränke. Für spielbegeisterte kleine und große Gäste stehen auf unserem Gelände vier individuell gestaltete Holz-Kugelbahnen bereit. Kulinarisch verwöhnen wir mit regionalen und saisonalen Schmankerln, wechselnden Tagesgerichten und Mehlspeisen. Da wir bemüht sind, möglichst auf Zusatz- und Konservierungsstoffe zu verzichten, wird selbst eingekocht und sämtliche Zutaten und Produkte werden sorgfältig ausgewählt. Am regelmäßig stattfindenden Bratl-Abend stehen Geselligkeit und gemütliches Beisammensein im Vordergrund. Nach einem kleinen Gruß aus der Küche gibt’s klassischen Schweinsbraten mit Semmelknödel, Kartoffeln und Kraut. Das Bratl wird im Reindl tischweise serviert.
