September 11, 2021,NP Gesäuse: Zur Ennstaler Hütte

The Gesäuse is a mountain group in the Northern Limestone Alps. With rugged limestone peaks and the valley of the Enns, it forms the northeastern part of the Ennstal Alps in Austria. In 2002, a large part of the Gesaeuse was declared a Gesaeuse National Park.

May 28, 2023,#544 Ennstalerhütte (Gstatterboden, Ennstalerhütte, Hochscheibenalm, Kroisalm)

In the Xeis there are only walks along the Enns.
And so the round from the Gstatterboden car park (6€) on the technically easy and marked path up to the Ennstalerhütte with its great views is also a worthwhile hiking tour.
The ascent to the Tamischbachturm currently still leads through a few snowfields, so the Giofel is still on the …

June 28, 2025,Gesäuse/ Gstatterboden_Ennstalerhütte

Today it rained until 9:30 a.m., so we had to re-plan. We climbed up to the Ennstalerhütte. The 950 meters of elevation gain had to be tackled in one go to the hut. The descent initially involved a steep descent along a rock face to the Hochscheibelalm, then the forest road led us further down. At the Kroisenalm, we had …

Beautiful tour .... with refreshments in the Ennstaler Hütte. Absolutely to recommend. Weather was perfect...not too warm, not too cold...and nice, light summer rain in between. On the whole tour I only met two other hikers once.
It was a wonderful day.

This is a truly beautiful hike, with no climbing or frills. Just a leisurely three-hour climb, followed by a good three-hour descent from the Ennstaler Hut via the Kroiser Alm. These are two wonderful places that you can still enjoy on your own now, before they open. It's also nice.

August 19, 2025,Nationalpark Gesäuse (Steiermark) 3: Ennstaler Hütte und Tamischbachturm (2035 m)

Third tour of the hiking week in Gesäuse National Park. What wouldn't you do for a summit and a great view? The Tamischbachturm is considered one of the top viewing mountains in the Gesäuse, with a fantastic 360-degree panorama. And rightly so! But the pleasure has to be fought for, with over 1,400 meters of ascent and descent. This is …

July 14, 2024,Komoot Hike & Learn im Nationalpark Gesäuse (Teil 2)

"Nothing touches us like the untouched" is the motto of the Austrian national parks. And we were able to see this for ourselves on the third day of the Komoot "Hike & Learn" in the Gesäuse National Park. The first part of the descent from the Ennstaler Hütte back to the Ennstal takes us along a so-called natural path. This …
