BergZeitReise Tagetourentipp - Rennfeld

Well, we are not running at all today, but hiking leisurely through the vast forests to the free mountain top with the mighty summit cross. By the way, all hiking trails are well marked and signposted!

For those who prefer a more leisurely approach, we recommend the ascent from the Pischkalm (accessible on a narrow mountain road via the Glanzgraben from Bruck an der Mur, few P!).

Those interested in cultural history should plan their start in the small village of Frauenberg, because the pilgrimage church Maria Rehkogel there is worth a visit.

If you want to extend this tour a bit, you can also start at the imposing Oberkapfenberg Castle. From there it's about an hour to Frauenberg via the hospitable "Prieselbauer".

Return to the Murtal - real stamina bolts start their ascent from Pernegg in the Gabraungraben.Schneidige 1,150 vertical meters are to be covered from here to the summit. As a small compensation for the long ascent, a beautiful high-altitude hike awaits all eager hikers here in the upper part.

Let's stay in the southern part of the Rennfeld. From Breitenau, starting from the GH Obersattler, the Rennfeld peak can also be climbed. In the upper part of this ascent variant, the trail joins the Central Alpine Trail, which crosses Austria from east to west.

The Fischbach Alpine Crossing

And here we are already at the final tip - the crossing of the Fischbacher Alps from Rennfeld via Teufelstein, Stanglalm, the Waldheimat and the Pretul to Stuhleck. Two to three wonderfully quiet and safe hiking days on the tracks of the BergZeitReise.

Altitude meters ascent, total walking time see individual tours.
