View of the Three Lakes from Stuhlkopf

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view from the top is not good! You have to go on to Bankerl, then a wonderful view of the 3 lakes, the Sonntagshorn, Dürnbachhorn, the Steinplatte and the Loferer Steinberge awaits you.

The unmarked path to the Stuhlkopf with the view of the Weitsee used to be an insider tip. Only a narrow path meandered up the mountain. In the meantime, word has gotten around how beautiful it is up there and the path is now more well-trodden than many an official hiking trail

Today I hiked with my mom over the Gräbenalm to the Stuhlkopf.
After a rest, we returned via the Pötschalm to the parking lot at Weitsee.

Today I went on a lovely mountain tour to the Stuhlkopf.

Climb via the Gräbenalm. The path has been used many times and is therefore easy to walk, just a little slippery in small places.
Rewarded with a great view and sunshine.

August 25, 2021,Weitsee - Gräbenalm - Pötschalm

This afternoon tour is recommended.
You walk along the Wappach brook to the Gräbenalm - it soon becomes kitschy and beautiful.
At the Gräbenalm, turn left across the meadow and the path is clearly visible from the entrance into the forest. If you want, you can make a detour to the Stuhlkopf in the forest - but it's not that …

Today I visited the Reitberg again. The path from the Pötschalm to the summit is still blocked by trees in some places. The final ascent to the summit is a narrow path and difficult to find.
