Access to starting point:
We leave Highway A2 Graz - Vienna at the Aspang Markt exit and follow the road to the mentioned settlement. When we arrive in the town, we follow the signs for the settlement Mariensee; at the end of the town, we continue straight towards St. Corona am Wechsel. We then begin to climb more steeply and follow the road to the settlement Unternberg, where we park in the car park next to the Familienskiland St. Corona am Wechsel ski area.
Route description:
From the parking lot we return a little back through the settlement, then turn right towards the west, where we initially pass a few more houses. We soon reach the ski slope area, where in the snow-free months numerous downhill cycling trails run. On this section we carefully follow the signs for the footpath, and extra caution is needed when crossing the pistes. Higher up, we follow the signs for the summit Kampstein and the mountain hut Herrgottschnitzerhütte; after a while we leave the ski slope area and at junctions continue to follow the signs for the mountain hut Herrgottschnitzerhütte. When the path flattens higher up, only a few more minutes of walking remain to the mountain hut Herrgottschnitzerhütte.
