Breitlahnhütte - Rudolf Schober Hütte | Trail 702: Stage 06

The 6th daily stage of the Schladminger Tauern Höhenweg from the Breitlahnhütte in Kleinsölktal to neighboring Krakau.

A varied hike, much of which takes place above the tree line in high alpine terrain with steep crossings. With the Rantensee, Hinterkarsee and Wiegensee, there are also some mountain lakes waiting to be discovered on this tour. The 6th stage of the Schladminger Tauern High Trail is relatively long and takes you from the Breitlahnhütte through lonely landscapes to the pine forests around the Rudolf Schober Hütte.

More information

Branch off from the Ennstalbundesstraße B320 at Pruggern to Sölktäler. From Stein an der Enns to the Kleinsölktal until you reach the Breitlahnhütte (toll road).

From the Breitlahnhütte we follow path no. 702 in direction Schwarzensee. Before we reach this lake, we turn left in the area of the Grafenalm. This path takes us past the “vordere Neualm” and the “innere Neualm”. At the wayside cross we turn right and hike steeply uphill to the Rantentörl. Above the Rantensee we cross the narrow path through the meadows of the Rantenalm to a small, crystal clear but nameless lake. Then it goes on across the Hinterkarscharte through and over boulders at the foot of Speikleiten to the Hubenbauertörl. We continue walking up and down until the last descent leads us to the beautiful arolla pine forests. The last 30 minutes of this day trip we walk uphill to the Rudolf Schober Hütte.

Experienced hikers can take path #793 from the "Innere Neualm" and take the route via Predigtstuhl (2,543 m).

The valley bus makes crossings in the Sölktäler Nature Park possible. Likewise, you can arrive comfortably by train and the Tälerbus will take you to your accommodation or the starting point of your hike. This bus runs during the Styrian summer vacations.
