Access to starting point:
From Kärnten: first we drive to the settlement Feldkirchen, from where we follow a well-marked road to the mountain pass Turracher Höhe.
From Steiermark and Salzburg we drive to the valley of the river Mur and follow the road to the settlement Predlitz (the settlement is located west of the town Murau). In Predlitz we leave the main road and continue driving towards the mountain pass Turracher Höhe.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we first cross the main road, then head to the narrower asphalt road that branches off at the pension »Elizabeth«. The road first descends slightly past the parking lots, then turns slightly to the right. We follow the signs for Schoberriegel. The asphalt then ends and we continue to follow the macadam road, which brings us to a junction with signposts. We continue in the direction of Schoberriegel, Eisenhut. The worsening road brings us to the hut Sonnalmhütte, which is located at the ski area. From the hut we continue along the road following the signs for Eisenhut. After a few turns, when we reach the upper station of the cableway, we leave the road and turn right onto the footpath. The path initially runs through sparse forest and occasionally offers a nice view towards Lake Turrachsee, located at the mountain pass Turracher Höhe. When we reach the ridge, the path turns slightly to the left and gradually the last trees disappear. The path then continues along the ridge and brings us to the grassy summit of Schoberriegel.
From the summit we descend along a wide ridge to the saddle, where there are also signposts. We follow the signs for Gruft. After approximately ten minutes of walking from the saddle, we arrive along a wide grassy ridge at the summit of Gruft, where there is also a path junction.
We continue in the direction of Kaserhöhe and Bretthöhe. First we descend slightly again to the saddle Weitentalsattel. From the saddle we continue along the fence in the direction of Kaserhöhe and Bretthöhe. The path ascends grassy slopes and brings us again to a junction. We continue in the direction of Kaserhöhe. After a short ascent we arrive at the grassy summit of Kaserhöhe, where there is also a cross.
