From alm to alm

As diverse as the wild forests in the Kalkalpen National Park are, so too are the colorful alpine pastures on the Hengstpass, which benefit from the natural mountain world. We hike leisurely across the alpine pastures on the Hengstpass with magnificent views of the Kampermauer and Haller Mauern to the Gesäuse. Stations along the nature experience trail provide an insight into the nursery of alpine newts and yellow-bellied toads and the variety of valuable small habitats on the alpine pasture.

Prerequisites: The guided tours on the fixed dates are reserved for private individuals. Groups of 10 or more people, companies, schools or other organizations are requested to contact the respective visitor center.
