The Klausnerhof is situated at an altitude of 1,050 m in a panoramic location, with views across the entire Enns Valley to the Dachstein massif. For planning your hikes, you can distinguish between different types of destinations: the tour to Scheibleck, trails around Lake Steirischer Bodensee, and a circular hike with llamas and alpacas on Gössenberg. If you are looking for accommodation, first decide which of these activities will be the main focus of your stay.
A high-altitude destination at Scheibleck
The Gössenberg–Pleschnitzzinken–Ochsenkarhöhe–Scheibleck hike reaches Scheibleck at 2,117 m. This makes it a specific, clearly defined high-altitude destination, unlike the circuit around Lake Steirischer Bodensee or the trails to Hüttensee and Obersee. The hike can be reached from the B320 via Gössenberg or the Seewigtal and the toll road to Loipoldhof. Road and toll conditions may change; check them before setting off. The destination’s altitude and access route are two separate points to consider when planning this tour for your stay.
Around Lake Steirischer Bodensee
You can also walk around Lake Steirischer Bodensee in winter. Snow and ice can affect trail conditions, so check them before setting out. The Five-Mountains-Tour | 310 passes through Gössenberg and into the Seewigtal valley to the lake. The winter circuit and this tour route offer different experiences: one focuses on walking around the lake, while the other follows the route through Gössenberg into the Seewigtal valley. You can choose the tour that best suits your preferred route, rather than treating the two descriptions as if they referred to the same route.
Trails to Hüttensee and Obersee
Hüttensee and Obersee lie on terraces above Lake Steirischer Bodensee, and steep hiking trails lead to both. This distinguishes them from a circuit around the lake: these routes lead to higher-altitude lakes. If you would rather make one lake your destination, this is an alternative to walking around the lake. The Hans-Wödl-Hütte at Hüttensee is another specific hiking destination: Trail No. 782 leads from the far end of Lake Steirischer Bodensee past a waterfall to the hut.
Getting there and trailheads
Lake Steirischer Bodensee can be reached from Aich via Gössenberg; seasonal road conditions may change, so check them in advance. The hike to the Hans-Wödl-Hütte starts at the car park in the Seewigtal, which can be reached via Aich/Gössenberg. This is a separate practical detail from the route of Trail No. 782: the car park identifies the starting point for the hike to the hut, while Trail No. 782 leads from the end of the lake past the waterfall to the hut. When planning an outing, you can consider the access route, starting point and specific trail separately.
A circular hike with llamas and alpacas
Another option is a circular hike with llamas and alpacas on Gössenberg, which takes around three hours. This approximate duration can help you plan your day; arrangements may need to be made in advance. If you plan to take this tour, it is best to confirm the arrangements beforehand.
