Beautiful hike, but surefootedness and a head for heights are required.

This mountain tour is one of the most beautiful ridge hikes I've done so far. There has often been a tingling sensation in my stomach. Almost without exception, the path from Pfennigstein to Schieferstein runs along the ridge, but the vegetation on both sides does not make it seem so dangerous. An adventurous breathtaking mountain trip with wonderful views.

Today I'm with

and Rosi
The starting point is Losenstein (Upper Austria)
We (or I) decide to leave the town, after all we need some altitude training.
You could also drive further up near the Hack farm and park there.
On the way up the Hackermauer we pass the Halbhöhle.
The rocky hike is great fun again after …
