Bergheimat - Ochsnerhütte (path 315)

Access to starting point:
Drive to Irschen (Austria). Once in Irschen follow the signs for Leppner Alm. The steep and picturesque road passes numerous houses in the steep terrain. The road eventually leads you through the forest. Expect a macadam road in its final kilometers. There is a parking at the destination and the Bergheimat in the near vicinity.

Path description:
Starting from the parking place, follow the macadam road for a few meters, pass the information tables and cross the small bridge. Immediately after the bridge, head left to the steep trail passing the signposts. After few minutes, our trail joins the road where signposts direct us to the right. Shortly after the left road turn, signposts direct us right to the trail in the direction Scharnik. The larch forest is slowly disappearing until the trail connects again with the road which must be followed for a short section, when again well-marked signposts direct us right to the trail. The trail leads to Ochsnerhütte at 1820 m.
