Description

From the hiking starting point in the village centre, walk east to the Horngacher butcher's shop. Cross the stream there and turn left towards the hamlet of Schönau - Pertrach / Tennalm. Follow the asphalt road uphill, pass under the railway line and turn right at the next junction towards Tennalm. Follow the trail to the alpine pasture, in the left-hand bend before the Tennalm, the hiking trail leads straight up towards the Buchensteinwand. First in the forest, then along the ski slope, it is a very direct climb up to the summit of the Buchensteinwand and the Jakobskreuz. At the top, you will be greeted by a wonderful panorama and the 30 m high, impossibly high Jakobskreuz, which is completely accessible. Return via the same route.
