Hirnkogel
The Hirnkogel tour is a challenging tour. The ascent is rewarded with a breathtaking view of the Pölstal mountains.
Description:
On the way...With respect for wildlife and the environment!
In the Pölstal valley, particular importance is attached to the preservation of unspoilt nature. So that people's enjoyment does not become a problem for wild animals and nature, consideration is required.
For the sake of nature and the environment, correct behaviour in the mountains is the top priority for hikers.
- Use the designated car parks
- Do not block any access roads and please observe local driving bans
- Observe information boards at the starting points and stick to the recommended marked routes
- Avoid approaching wild animals
