GUIDED HIKING DREAM - Pühringer Hut

Once you've arrived there, you won't want to leave the breathtaking legendary Lahngang lakes, which offer refreshment and water replenishment with their cool waters. These natural jewels are halfway to our final destination - the idyllically situated Pühringer Hütte at the beautifully Lake Elm.

• Difficulty level ‘difficult’
• Starting point Kanzlermoos car park
• Walking time approx. 5 hours
• 13 km length
• 1023 metres altitude

The Pühringer Hütte at 1,637 metres stands alone in the Totes Gebirge in the Styrian Salzkammergut on the beautiful Elmsee and directly below the Elm. It is an important base for long-distance hikers.
From the district of Gößl on the eastern shore of the Grundsee lake, the trail leads steeply uphill through the forest right at the start. You enter the Totes Gebirge Ost nature reserve via the Drausengatterl. The path continues picturesquely past the northern shore of the two Lahngang lakes and slightly uphill to the Elmgrubenschacht - also known as Emil's Tränenhügel.
Following the signposts, you finally reach the Pühringerhütte, which stands at the beautiful Elmsee lake, nestled in lush vegetation and karstic rock formations at the foot of the Elm.

The hikes only take place in good weather.

Meeting point for departure to the starting point (Kanzlermoos car park) at 8:00 am at the Gutshof on the Zloam.
