Karbach Walk
Short round tour on forest roads near the valley terminal of the Hochwurzen cable-car with nice views to Rohrmoos.
A short walk, suitable for prams, with starting point at the valley terminal of the Gipfelbahn Hochwurzen cable-car. Along forest roads you walk through the forest in the area above the valley terminal. Two times you also make your way across two mountain meadows (in the winter these are ski pistes), from where you have a nice view to Rohrmoos.

More information
From Schladming take provincial highway L722 (Rohrmoosstraße road) to Rohrmoos and at the roundabout continue straight on until you reach the cable-car Gipfelbahn Hochwurzen.
From the hiking trail head you pass by the sport shop "Schi Lenz" and take the forest road. You follow this dirt road for about 700 m to the turn-off of Karbach Walk. You continue on a forest road and then make your way across a meadow (which is a ski piste in winter). You continue on the same road, cross another "ski piste" and reach the trail junction with the fairy-tale trail. Here you make a right and head back to your starting point.
