The Ressen is a wooded mountain located halfway along the Grundsee. It is easy to climb from the Narcissus village of Zloam and offers an attractive view over Lake Grundlsee and the Tote Gebirge mountains. This mountain is also suitable for beginners to mountaineering, although you have to climb approx. 797 metres in altitude. At the beginning of the approx. 9.6 km long trail, you hike along a forest road with spectacular views of the Rigips cable car to Ressen. After the first major ascent, you pass a lovely mountain pasture. From the middle station of the cable car, you hike the last section up the Ressen and can enjoy a view over the village of Grundlsee and beyond as a finale.

The hikes only take place in good weather.

Meeting point for departure to the starting point at 8:00 am at the Gutshof on the Zloam.
The journey to the starting point is included in the price for hotel guests of Narzissendorf Zloam. External participants please enquire when registering for the tour.
