Winter hiking to the Hallerhaus (from Mönichkirchen)

<p>From the valley station of the Erlebnisalm Mönichkirchen, we follow a path along the lift to the mountain station. Right at the mountain station, we see the mountain inn Mönichkirchner Schwaig and also the Alpenhotel Enzian. We go past them on the left and see the Hallerhaus sign in front of the trees. Continue to keep left and follow the path. At the fork in the path, we go straight up the somewhat steep slope. We are on the first level, about halfway through the hike. At the next fork, we keep right again. We follow the path towards the next group of trees. <br /> At the front tip of the group of trees, there is a signpost with signs "Loipe" and "Hallerhaus". We follow the path. We come to a wide path surrounded by fields and forest. After a few meters in this piece of forest, we have already reached our destination.</p>

<p>Sturdy footwear, poles (with snow baskets if snow is present), waterproof outdoor clothing, hat, gloves, scarf or multifunctional cloth, backpack, headlamp (days are shorter in winter), sunglasses, sun and/or cold protection, drinking bottle or thermos flask are indispensable in winter.</p>

<p>The route partly passes through forests and over unpaved paths. In case of snow, the paths are not cleared and may have icy or slippery spots. Use of the paths is at your own risk. It is recommended to be mindful of early dusk and to carefully plan the routes.  </p>
