Description
From the parking lot behind the Hochkarbahn in the direction of the Almgasthof, the hike starts through mountain pine fields and across green meadows. A marked path leads under the Hochkarbahn over the ski slope up to the Hochkar pre-summit past the "small summit cross".
Once you have reached the Hochkar pre-summit, it is only a few meters until you can experience the breathtaking views on the Hochkar 360 degree Skytour. From the summit station of the Hochkarbahn, turn left - about 300 meters to the start of the 900-meter-long circular trail. Weather permitting, you can expect spectacular views from the Mostviertel region to the Danube and into Styria. See for yourself!
If you want to take it even easier, choose the tour via the supply road.
- Editor’s tip Above all, the Skytour opens up a fascinating panoramic view of the surrounding mountain landscape with cozy spots to relax.
