The tour

Winter hiking in front of a stunning mountain landscape.The route leads from the Natur- und Wellnesshotel Höflehner (Gumpenberg) along a signposted winter hiking trail to the Knapplhütte and the mountain station of the chairlift "Höfi-Express 1". Therefore, one route (uphill or downhill) can also be covered with the chairlift.

Starting from the Natur- und Wellnesshotel Höflehner (Gumpenberg), follow the path uphill past the deer enclosure and ski lift to the Knapplhütte hut. ATTENTION: The path partly crosses the ski slope. The way back is the same.
