Equipment

Good equipment is essential for your hike. The following items should definitely be in your rucksack: - Food and drink - Functional clothing for rain, wind and cold - A change of clothes - Sun protection - First aid kit - Mobile phone with a full battery (Euro emergency number 112) - Hiking map or GPS - Hiking poles Nevertheless, the following applies: light luggage is also easier to carry, so you should not weigh down your rucksack with unnecessary ballast. In addition, your hiking equipment should of course also be adapted to your particular hiking tour.

Description

Your moderately difficult tour to the mountain lake starts in Holzgau through the Höhenbach valley. At the Rossgumpenalm, you continue hiking through the Schochenalp valley, along a gravel path until you reach a marked trail. The route from the Heilbronner Weg to Holzgau leads you past the Schochenalpsee, this branches off at the small Steinscharte to Holzgau. On the way you will pass some waterfalls worth seeing and hike the route back to your starting point.
