By Bus to the Mountain – Hinteralm Crossing

A non-technical but longer mountain hike across the breathtaking Hinteralm. Suitable for children with good endurance. In summer, the Halterhütte on the Hinteralm is staffed.

A peaceful natural gem in northeastern Styria.

The Lachalm extension is highly recommended but requires an additional 1 to 1.5 hours of hiking time.

From Krampen, the route follows the new Lachalmweg to the Falkensteinalm, then continues over the Hinteralmstock to Frein an der Mürz.

This tour is also popular among pilgrims heading to Mariazell and begins along the new Lachalmsteig.
