Rote Wand-Runde über Bucheben, Mixnitz

Open
A hike from Mixnitz via Bucheben to the “Rote Wand” with challenging nature trails, idyllic rest areas and breathtaking views.

Experience a challenging hike from Mixnitz via Bucheben to the Rote Wand in the Almenland Nature Park. The path leads over nature trails, forest paths and meadows. With a bit of luck you can also meet ibexes along the way. Surefootedness is required due to stones and boulders. The summit rewards with an impressive cross and spectacular views. There are places to stop for refreshments along the way, and the Tyrnaueralm hut is particularly attractive. Here the “Alm Erich” also plays the Styrian harmonica for his guests and there are also cool drinks and a hearty snack.

Immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature, experience the diversity of the Alpine region and let yourself be inspired by this impressive route.
