From the village of Pürgg up past the swimming pool, follow path #289 on an alpine path. After the bend, the hiking trail branches off to the left in the direction of the Gindlhorn. A steep ascent and a hiking trail through rocky terrain takes you to the high pasture area at the Schröflhütte. From there you hike more or less flat to the crossroads below the Gindlhorn. The ascent to this beautiful vantage point is short but crisp and rewarded with a beautiful view. You descend again to the crossroads and follow the signs down to Gasthof Dachsteinblick. On the way there you can make a small deotur to the "Kleines Hörndl" (about +5 minutes). You've earned a rest at the inn.
Continue on the way to Pürgg. Along the various wayside shrines you walk steadily downhill. In the forest you come to a crossroads and continue to follow path #278 - relatively flat at the end - out to your starting point in Pürgg.
