Enzian Hut on Kieneck

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A great hut with a wonderful location. The panorama extends from the Schneeberg via Rax, Schneealm, Veitsch, Göller to the Ötscher. Very good food and homemade schnapps (stone pine, dirndl, elder, ...) and pastries. The girls from the team are really great, highly recommended!

Kieneck Summit Cross

Highlight • Summit

The Kieneck is very close to Furth an der Triesting and the hiking and water world Myrafälle Muggendorf. The summit can be easily hiked on relatively easy routes.

October 12, 2024,Enzianhütte auf dem Kieneck via Enziansteig, Almeskogel, Geißruck, Atzsattel
It was time to go back to Kieneck. It had been a long time since we had been up to the Enzianhütte with its wonderful view.

We already knew the Enziansteig. But this time in the autumn-clad mixed forest. The sun's rays found their way through the now sparsely decorated trees, whose leaves revealed the view of the Unterberg and …

Today I chose Kieneck with the Enzian Hut in the Gutenstein Alps as my destination. The sun shone the entire time, and there was no wind. The trail mostly leads through forest. The chosen ascent route doesn't pose any major challenges. Initially, it's along forest roads, but when I turn onto the ridge path over Geissruck and Almeskogel, it gets …

A wonderful but exhausting tour. Up to the Geißruck there is a long stretch of around 40% and it is very overgrown! If I will go around the next time then the tour will be 2km longer🤷🏻‍♂️😉

I chose the Enziansteig as the ascent route. It takes about two hours, but you're rewarded with magnificent views even during the ascent.
The food at the Enzianhütte was excellent, and from the terrace you …
