Path description:
From the parking lot, take the leftmost road towards Kohlerhütte. The path takes you along a winding road with occasional views. A little higher up, the road crosses a couple of streams and leads to a resting place called 'Maria in der Zirbe'. The road slowly gets a little worse and climbs a little more. After 40 minutes of walking, the path leads to a grassy slope where you can see a larger shepherd's hut on the right.
Continue along the road for another five minutes and you will reach the Turkenkreuz (Turkish Cross). Here you will come to a crossroads where you will continue up the meadow to the right by a pasture fence. After a few minutes of gentle ascent on a grassy slope, the path leads back to the road, where you continue to the left. The road starts to descend and leads us to the hut in a few minutes.
