Adventure hike on Prinzenberg

You start at the upper station of the Natrun cable car. From there, follow trail no. 401a via Prinzensee to the Jufenalm. At Jufenalm, walk a short distance back along the same path until you reach the fork. There, keep left and hike on trail no. 26a to Grammlergut.

Then continue your tour on trail no. 26a to the Tom Almhütte. From Tom Almhütte, go via the forest slide park back onto trail no. 26a or 26 in the direction of Postalm. From Postalm, follow trail no. 26 back to the valley station of the Natrun cable car, passing the Dorfstadl along the way.

Planning and preparation: Plan every intended mountain tour carefully in advance. Hiking maps and guides as well as information from alpine clubs and locals such as mountain guides and hut keepers can be helpful.

Equipment: In the mountains, you need appropriate equipment and clothing, especially sturdy, high shoes with grippy soles. Weather and cold protection are indispensable, as weather can change suddenly.

Weather forecasts: Observe current weather conditions at: zamg.at or www.uwz.at.

Togetherness: Observe the 10 rules for proper behavior with grazing animals and do not leave any waste in nature!

Do not dislodge stones: Do not dislodge stones as that can seriously endanger other hikers. Marked spots with rockfall risk should be crossed as quickly as possible with attention and caution. Turn back in time: This is no shame but a sign of reason. It becomes necessary if the weather deteriorates, fog sets in, or if the path is too difficult or not in good condition.

Emergency numbers: Alpine emergency: 140, International emergency: 112, Rescue: 144
