Dürrenschöberl

On trail no. 651 we hike on forest roads past Röthelstein Castle to Hubereck. From here the trail leads directly over the ridge.  We hike through high moors over the Spießkogel and reach the summit with its magnificent panorama after about 4 1/2 hours.
Trail no. 651 leads from Admont via Röthelstein Castle - Hubereck - Spießkogel to the summit in approx. 4 1/2 hours. The last third in particular leads directly along the ridge (high moors) to the Dürrenschöberl.Descent either the same way or as we did on trail no. 652 to Frauenberg/ Ardning (approx. 3 hours).

Trail conditions: gravel, forest, meadow, alpine pastureland

Except for the first part of the descent to Frauenberg, this is an easy but enduring hike with absolutely fantastic views in all directions!

From Hubereck we continue along a marked forest path up to Spießkogel and then the last ascent up to Dürrenschöberl. The Dürrenschöberl is an outstanding panoramic mountain and offers a view of the Enns valley, Gesäuse mountains, Haller Mauern, Rottenmanner Tauern etc. A disc at the summit near the cross explains all the surrounding peaks.

We descend via trail 652 to Frauenberg, initially a little steeper.

We parked a car there to save us the long way back on the road!
