In clear weather, the Alpine chain from the Ötscher to Traunstein would be visible above Loibersdorf.

Unfortunately, there is no summit cross on the highest elevation with granite rocks on the Zeissberg, but the view and the tranquility of this place of power are all the more beautiful.

There is a model of a horse-drawn railway carriage on a small bridge over a stream. Great for getting in and posing for a photo.

Very nice, small rest area with a fire pit and plenty of seating. There is also a rustic outhouse.
