Freienstein-Round over Kunagrün

Loop trail no. 14 in the vacation villages Haus-Aich-Gössenberg

Over the crest of the Freienstein a hike full of surprises opens up for us. Not many would expect this inconspicuous forest mountain to have a very attractive high trail running over its long, still forested ridge. Among other things, we cross a beautiful forest clearing with many flowers and tall grasses before we march between pines up to the summit. There a dreamlike place with deep views to both sides awaits us. But also the Schladminger Tauern and the Stoderzinken are photogenic in our field of vision.
