August 11, 2021,Schneeberg Gipfel von Losenheim Sesselbahn - große Runde
First time on the Schneeberg! Dream day, hardly anyone up there, great weather - absolutely perfect! Next time with the chairlift - you really don't have to hike the ski slope.

Started at the parking lot
at the Losenheim chairlift, of course on foot to the Edelweisshütte in 25 minutes (the time tables were very friendly to me today 😀 ). Then over the Fadensteig - the sign saying 'only for the experienced' isn't there for fun - up to the Kaiserstein. With my non-existent height, the climb almost fell under …

Today is the peak of the heat wave in Vienna! So get out of the city! And off to Puchberg am Schneeberg. Fitness and weight say: Take the chairlift for the first few meters, because after that, there's still plenty of climbing to do. Indeed. The Fadensteig is quite steep, with some easy climbing sections in between. Okay for going …

The fog drew beautiful mystical mood pictures around the Schneeberg today 🤩.
Up and down with the chairlift (free with the NÖ-Card). Nevertheless, there were still enough meters of altitude left. The descent through the steep, narrow and rocky Latschenweg was very strenuous. For this we were rewarded immediately afterwards with a flatter section, a very natural mystical forest 🥰.

Planned 2 years ago and finally done today...
I've been wanting to see the Fadendteig for a long time and today was the day. Not too hot and therefore great weather for a bit of climbing and a few meters in altitude.


I took the chairlift up the first part.

At the end of our vacation it had to be the Fadensteig again.

The third time for us. But we were comfortable and took the chairlift to the Edelweißhütte. Yes, well, you could also from below ... etc. ... but folks, we or I had done 3 2000s in South Tyrol. And still the only one from Lower Austria today. …
