Turn-by-turn directions
It starts at the post office and continues along Loretostraße, then you follow Bürgerbergstraße over 4 switchbacks until you come to a fork in the road. There a large gentian sign marks the entrance to hiking trail 462, where you dive into the shady forest. After about an hour of hiking, the forest clears and you have reached the Bürgerbergalm. The hiking trail goes well marked after the Bürgerbergalm and in the shade of the trees to the summit of the Rossbrand, where the Radstädter Hütte invites you to stop. A breathtaking panorama is finally offered to you from the Rossbrand summit, which animated the creator of the large wooden cross to write with deep notches in the crossbar, “Lord God, d‘ Hoamat is beautiful! ”. So that everyone can really enjoy this fantastic view, a toll-free road leads up to approx. 15 minutes' walk below the summit. At the same time as the ascent, hiking trail no.461 can be chosen for the descent, starting directly at the Radstädter Hütte via Berggasthof Rohrmoos to Radstadt. This path crosses or touches the road to Rossbrand again and again.
