The path to the Pettenfirsthütte (710m) is suitable for families and children. From Zell am Pettenfirst it goes up via the children's forest. The innkeepers at the hut are very friendly, the service is good, the cuisine is down-to-earth and the prices are quite reasonable. Opening hours: Open Tuesday-Sun in summer, Monday is a day off. In winter it is open Fri-Sun.

Nice hut, good snack, but unfortunately not a proper lunch. Between the trees there is a view towards the southwest - from Lake Mondsee to the Salzburg Untersberg, with the Berchtesgaden peaks in between.

It is a 734 meter high mountain in the Hausruck and Kobernausserwald range in the Hausruckviertel. The summit is in the municipality of Pöndorf. To the northwest, the Rabenbachtal leads to the Hochecker Schwemmbachtal and thus to Mattig and Inn, to the west is the Fornacher Redltal, which drains with the Bruckwiesenbach to the Vöckla and via the Ager to the Traun. The mountain is mostly counted towards the Kobernausserwald, partly also towards the Hausruck – the demarcation of which is seen somewhere in the room. The name is likely to be of Slavic origin, -eis is a typical Windian educational syllable. In the Franciscan cadastre of the 1830s, a small hilltop settlement of Branauer is listed here, as well as an important border tree. There is said to have been an inn here. A single hut still stands today. A chapel is said to have stood nearby even earlier, according to Carl Schütz in 1787, in the south towards Meisterholz there is a St. Wolfgang. It must have fallen into disrepair by the 1830s. The mountain can be reached from all sides on numerous forest roads, through the valleys as well as along the ridges. A forest road also runs along the ridge itself. This makes the area good for hiking and mountain biking
