Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author

Sturdy footwear and provisions are recommended, as some paths are unpaved and the places to eat are not always open.

Otherwise, a stop at Ungerberg and in Ulbersdorf at the Almenhof is recommended.

From the lookout tower on Ungerberg, you can enjoy the view even more with binoculars.
