Geisstein
Starting at the Hahnenkamm valley station, head south along the base of the railway. Initially, an asphalt road takes you through the tranquil Malern district. From there, a challenging trail climbs towards Malern Alm, requiring careful pacing. At Malern Alm, enjoy a stunning view of the town and the Wilder Kaiser.
Follow the signs to Gschwandbaum, traversing alpine meadows and then a forest until you reach an impressive natural monument: a spruce tree with a diameter of 1.75 meters and a height of 42.2 meters. Return along the same trail until just past Malern Alm, then turn left towards Einsiedelei. From there, a fantastic downhill trail leads back to the valley. After passing under the railway, return to the starting point. This loop can be run both clockwise and counterclockwise.
Fair in the early morning, then considerable cloudiness and frequent rain.
At first rain and rain showers, then the skies will clear in the afternoon.
