Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author

Sturdy footwear and provisions are recommended, as the paths are partly unpaved and the dining options are not always open.

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

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