The route leads over three summits with great views and to one of the most beautiful mountain lakes in the region - the Wildseelodersee.

Description

From the centre of Fieberbrunn, the route first runs on gravel paths through the Pletzergraben towards the Herrgottbrücke bridge. Here you choose the left path and run steadily uphill towards Grundalmen. Follow the hiking trail signs to "Gebrakapelle". Follow the Fieberbrunner Höhenweg trail to the ridge above the chapel. Then orientate yourself towards the summit of the Gebra (2,057 m). Surefootedness is required for this section of the trail, but the summit victory is always worth it! Back on the Fieberbrunner Höhenweg, the route continues with a wonderful panorama in the direction of Niederer Mahdstein and Jufenhöhe, before the next striking ascents and descents await. Up to Wildseeloder (2,118 m), down to Wildseelodersee (1,854 m) and up to Henne (2,077 m). From here on it's downhill! Via Reckmoos towards Grießenbodenalm and Lärchfilzhochalm, over the Grutten to the valley station of the Fieberbrunn cable cars and via the Achenweg (use the subway of the main road at Walchau!) back to the centre of Fieberbrunn.
