Hinterdientner Hiking Trail

We start at the Dienten Ski Centre - through the parking deck - and walk along the neighbouring road "Reizegg" until we reach the main road "B164 Hochkönig Bundesstraße". Here we follow the road uphill to the junction on the left (trail no. 65) where we walk past the "Priesterhöfl & Innerhöfl" farms to the Hotel Übergossene Alm Resort. From here we walk along the "Klimaschutzweg"(climate protection trail) for a while. At the heating plant we come back to the main road. Walk along this road for a short distance until you reach the turn-off to the Dacheggbauer/Heimatküche.

self-assessment: Check your physical fitness before every mountain tour and correctly assess your strength and that of your companions - especially your children! Surefootedness and a head for heights are often very important!

planning and preparation: Plan every intended mountain tour in advance. Hiking maps and guides as well as information from alpine clubs and local experts such as mountain guides and hut keepers can be helpful.

equipment: On the mountain, you need appropriate equipment and clothing, especially sturdy, high footwear with a non-slip sole. Weather and cold protection are essential, as the weather can often change unexpectedly.

weather forecasts: Check the current weather conditions at: www.zamg.at or www.uwz.at.

togetherness: Observe the 10 rules for the correct handling of grazing animals and do not leave any waste in nature!

do not kick stones: Do not step on stones, as this can seriously endanger other hikers. Marked places where there is a risk of falling rocks should be crossed as quickly as possible and with attention and caution.

turn back in good time: This is not a disgrace, but a sign of common sense. It becomes necessary when the weather changes, fog sets in, and also when the path is too difficult or not in good condition.

emergency numbers: Alpine emergency number: 140, International emergency number: 112, Rescue: 144
