Poachers way history - the poacher Johann Fahrnberger trail is a journey through time to the scene Mayralm for connoisseurs of nature and history: 12 km hike to Mayralm and back
The trail starts steep and winds through a bright forest in the height. After a geschlägerten clearing followed by a less steep path through high, partly grassy coniferous forest and empties into a narrow passage through young forest.
An overgrown road runs at a slight incline to the edge of the national park.

After a small forest plateau, a narrow, steep path across the right steeply sloping hillside. It alternate clear exposed passages from shady forest crossings. In sweeping views of the mountains deep insights follow in primary forest landscapes.

Path and slope becomes steeper, it must be crossed trenches and Steinfeld, before you will be rewarded with a stunning view from Speikkogel 1112 meters above sea level.

The slope is crossed and now a short woody piece recirculation straight to the ridge and are on the other side the view of the flat bare ground free.

Links the trail continues down over a slope through a flat, wild overgrown wooded area with numerous anthills and huge fallen beeches for flat clearing Kainz floor.

On opposing forest beginning you can access to a rocky Holweg account, which leads straight through a clear forest landscape before it rises steeply after a slight left turn and abruptly opens a vast plateau - the Mayralm.

Fenced by low wooded hills crests, the plateau is like an arena in the center of the ruined Mayralm is as unreal ruin immediately before us.

About the meadow up on the ridge directly in the flight of the Mayralm found right near the forest of the so-called Hunter Stone (hunters Cross). It bears witness to the fierce battle, which took place on the Mayralm and perhaps is the cause of the mysterious atmosphere.

 
The Mayralm

Peace it is because that Mayralm. Nestled in a clear Almsenke. At the foot of Sengsen promontory. As a small paradise, a world unto itself. The location, the nature, the view - one understands immediately why one finds a hut right here. Or rather what is left of it. Today are from the former hunting, forestry, Holzknecht-, and forest ranger hut only the foundation walls. collapsed in to the stone walls, rotten that criss-cross on the meadow scattered ceiling beams of wood. Grasses are making their way through the wall cracks. Moss overgrown on the remains of former ceiling post. Still, it is here. Contemplative and lonely. With an idea of history.

It has meanwhile become quiet around the former mountain hut at the foot of the mountain pines overgrown Mayr Wipfels. Who would suspect that here - where today dozing cattle comfortably on taunassem grass - once occurred a great bloodshed? That the wide meadow stage of a dramatic spectacle was - a momentous shootout between hunters, poachers and policemen?

You know it. The walls that still draw the floor plan of Mayralm. They are stone witnesses of bygone times. Could they talk, they would tell you what has been here once happened in detail. When the first shot has been fired and has claimed its first victim. From poignant agonies and last breaths

Vis-à-vis users

1. The tours presented for hiking, walking, biking and road biking, mountain biking, motorbiking, horseback riding, climbing, cross-country skiing, and going on skiing and snowshoe tours etc. are to be considered non-paid tour recommendations and only serve as non-binding information. We have no intention of concluding a contract with the users of this website. The utilisation of the data does not lead to the establishment of a contract with us.

 

The data may only be used for private use; any commercial use is prohibited. In particular, it is not permissible to offer the data on commercially run websites, file-sharing platforms etc. or to use it to develop commercial products. Downloading data does not imply that users are granted rights to the data concerned.

 

The tour recommendations posted were created with utmost care; nevertheless, we assume no liability for the correctness and completeness of the information.

 

We point out that neither the tour recommendations included on this website nor the associated data and information were posted by us, but rather by third parties (Art. 16 Austrian E-Commerce Act). We have no influence on whether the details provided (e.g. distance, level of difficulty, change in altitude, description etc.) are authentic, correct and complete. We do not review these third-party contents. For this reason, we assume no liability for the authenticity, correctness and completeness of the information.

 

Construction-related measures or other influences (e.g. landslides and similar occurrences) can lead to temporary or permanent changes in a route (e.g. loss of a bridge and similar occurrences). Such occurrences can lead to part of the route or the entire route becoming impassable.

 

The use of the data as well as undertaking (riding, walking, taking etc.) the recommended tours or using the network of paths occurs at users’ own risk and on their authority. In particular, users themselves are responsible for the choice of route, outdoor orientation, adherence to traffic rules, supplies and equipment for tours listed in Point 1 (e.g. bicycle etc.), wearing a helmet, estimating their own fitness, recognising dangers and maintaining an appropriate velocity. We exclude ourselves from any liability whatsoever for damages, in particular accidents, that occur whilst taking part in the recommended tours.

 

2.Some of the tours lead over roads with normal traffic conditions. Please observe that there is an increased risk which can be avoided by means of appropriate attention and proper estimation and implementation of one’s own abilities. For this reason, please travel a route that is unfamiliar to you slowly and with special care. Pay constant attention to potential dangers and always observe traffic. Do not leave the routes featured in descriptions.

 

The potential use of private roads, in particular forestry roads and agricultural transport roads, can be subject to legal restrictions, which must be observed and adhered to.

 

The normal traffic rules apply. Each user (e.g. biker, motorbiker) is responsible for adhering to these rules and maintaining his/her bike/vehicle and its equipment (lights, brakes etc.) in good working order. Each user is also responsible for ensuring that he/she rides at a velocity that is appropriate for the conditions and his/her skill level and for maintaining sufficient distance to the rider in front. We explicitly recommend adjusting velocity to correspond to the respective field of vision, wearing a helmet, using reflective clothing (or similar) and employing bicycle lights in line with regulations.

 

3.Each tour requires good physical fitness as well as detailed planning. We explicitly recommend only taking the tours in the case of optimal healthiness.

 

We recommend that you conclude an accident and liability insurance policy. Use an onboard computer that displays the respective kilometres travelled per day and is calibrated for the front wheel.

 

4.Special for mountain bikers – Fair-play rules:

 

Mountain biking is one of the most wonderful outdoor leisure-time activities. Whilst biking or on a mountain biking tour, mountains and lakes, meadows and cabins are re-discovered in new ways. A couple of rules for fair play in the forest help to avoid conflicts whilst mountain biking.

 

a.Pedestrians have the right of way: We are accommodating and friendly to pedestrians and hikers. Upon encountering these fellow travellers, we alert them by using the bicycle bell and slowly overtake them. We avoid paths with heavy pedestrian traffic altogether. Take nature into account: We do not leave refuse behind.

b.The braking distance should be half of the total distance visible: We ride at a controlled pace, are ready to brake and maintain a braking distance half as long as the total distance visible, especially in curves, because we always have to count on obstacles on the path. Damage to the path, stones, branches, wood piles, grazing livestock, cattle grids, barriers, tractor-type forestry machines and authorised vehicles pose dangers that we need to be ready for.

c.Don’t drink and drive!: Do not drink alcohol when mountain biking. Take care at stop-off points (dealing with bike racks, dirty shoes or clothing).

It is obligatory to provide first aid!

d.Marked routes, closed paths and blockades: Keep to the marked routes, observe the blockades and accept that these roads are primarily for agricultural and forestry use!

Blockades can often not be avoided and are in your own interest. Biking beyond the intended path and outside of opening times is punishable and turns us into illegal bikers.

e.We are guests in the forest and behave accordingly, including vis-à-vis forestry and hunting staff. Whilst mountain biking, mobile telephones and music players are forbidden! Biking requires your full attention.

f.Avoid unnecessary noise. Out of consideration to the animals living in the wild, we only bike during full daylight. As a principle, we always wear our helmet (even when riding uphill)! Don’t forget emergency supplies: We always have a repair set and bandages along.

g.Don’t overestimate your skills: We should not overdo it when it comes to biking technique and physical fitness. Take the level of difficulty posed by the route into consideration and make a precise estimate of your experience and skills as a biker (braking, bell, lights)!

h.Close gates: We approach grazing livestock at a walking pace and close every gate behind us. We should avoid causing escape and panic reactions in the animals. Nothing stands in the way of the fun and athletic challenge in the mountains and forests!

i.Traffic rules: The general traffic rules (StVO) apply for all the mountain biking routes and we adhere to them. Our bike therefore needs to be in perfect technical condition and equipped in line with the traffic rules, including brakes, a bell and lights. We inspect and service our mountain bikes regularly anyway.

Moreover, we have no influence on the design or contents of the websites to which hyperlinks on www.urlaubsregion-pyhrn-priel.at lead or from which hyperlinks lead to www.urlaubsregion-pyhrn-priel.at.
