More information

The best way to plan your journey to Pichl-Kainisch is with google.at/maps.
From the starting point follow the green signs. The path leads over a footbridge, then through forest terrain to the karst springs, which are only water-bearing during high or melting water. In the dry season they are easily recognizable by mossy stones in the course of the river.Then follow the signs through the forest, often crossing paths, until you reach Lake Öden. Walk around the lake clockwise until you reach the Kohlröserlhütte. After a leisurely stop, you hike comfortably past the "cold" and "warm" lake to Kainisch. After crossing the bridge, already on the asphalt road, you walk along the bike path to the right next to the railroad body back to the starting point.
