With a beautiful view of the Sattental and the Kleinsölk, the path continues slightly uphill until the last climb to the summit cross. Then comes another uphill climb until you can see the cross from afar.
After a brief rest, the path continues at the summit cross on the right side of the ridge towards Spateck. There is a steady uphill and downhill traverse through Fleischkögel, Lafenberg and below Dromeisspitz to Schladminger Törl (1,945) mountain saddle. There, turn right towards the Schladming Alps (Path no. 22), where you can enjoy a break as well as local food and drinks.
After the break follow Forststraße out of the valley into the north until reaching the Stiegleralm’s first signpost. From there, walk towards the right and follow the climb and signposts to the serviced Stiegleralm cabin. After taking a break, continue through the Jägerstieg - first, the climb will lead through a meadow, through the forest and directly to the Kochofen hiking path. Make a left at this crossroads and head down to the Michaelerberghaus starting point.
Take the junction at Michaelerberg in Moosheim and follow the road until reaching Michaelerberghaus.
