The tour
ALWAYS WITH THE CALM. Deeply relaxed, you stroll along the forest path to the Riedleralm. Only the murmur of the torrent and the chirping of the birds accompany you. More of this idyll? Then continue with you to the Beireutalm.

Turn-by-turn directions
From the Hinterwald parking lot and past the Riedler barrier, you stroll leisurely along the forest path to the Riedleralm. Only the murmur of the torrent that ripples along the way and the chirping of the birds accompany you. Even on hot days this small, fine tour is inviting. You will always find a shady spot. If the hike is too short for you, then just march on to the Beireutalm (45 min from Riedleralm). Take the same path back again.
Getting there
From the Ennstalbundesstraße (B320) turn off at the Trautenfels junction in the direction of Irdning, Donnersbach, Donnersbachwald. Through the village of Donnersbach and another 12 km to Donnersbachwald. Past the Riesneralm and about 3.5 km to Hinterwald to the barrier Riedleralm.
No public transport to the start point.

Equipment
- Plan your tour in advance, taking into account walking time, route length, altitude difference, danger spots and weather forecast.Together is much more beautiful and at the same time safer in the mountains.
- Do not go alone, if possible, and adapt the tour to the ability of your group.
- Let them know where you are going and when you want to be back. Also sign hut or summit books.
- Turn back in good time if the weather deteriorates. If you get caught in a thunderstorm, do not stay on the summit or ridge and stay away from individual trees. Wait out the storm, if possible in a crouching position.
- Stay on the marked trails and remember to close pasture fences again.
- Getting up the trail is only half the battle. Stay alert, especially on the descents, to make it back to the valley safely.In case of emergency, keep calm and call the mountain rescue on 140. If you have no reception, take out the sim card and dial 112.
- If you encounter cows: It is best to pass above the herd with at least 50 meters distance. Stay calm, don't make any frantic movements and don't run away. Do not imitate cow sounds and do not try to pet the animals. A stick and loud shouting can often make the animals turn back in an emergency.
- If you are a dog owner: Clarify before the hike if you have to cross a pasture. Keep your dog on a leash and make sure he stays calm. If a cow attacks, let the dog off the leash immediately. Never pick him up to defend him.
- You can get detailed information on "Safe Mountain Hiking" from the Alpine Club. At www.alpenverein.at you can inform yourself comprehensively about it.
Suitable footwear goes without saying.

Perfect Hike-Tour for hot summerdays, because there give enough shade places.
