Karchau-Mühlsteinboden-St. Bubbles round

Hike to the idyllic chapel with a wonderful panoramic view, then continue to St. Blase to visit the church and after a short stop back to the Alpengasthof Moser.
According to legend, Mühlsteinboden was a witch mountain. Bad weather is said to have showered hail every year until a pious farmer put a cross there. Today there is a small pilgrimage church there at 1,544 m above sea level. Locals and guests alike confirm that this is still a special place of power today, where you can find peace and recharge your batteries for everyday life.
