Brennerfeldeck

Open
This is a beautiful, but physically demanding mountain hiking trail that should definitely not be underestimated.
Magnificent views of the Niedere Tauern, the Dachstein, the Toten Gebirge in the north, the Zirbitzkogel and the Julian Alps with Triglav in the south, as well as, on a clear day, the easternmost glaciers of the Central Alps, the Hochalmspitze and the Ankogel.
