Meadow

The cable car runs every 20 minutes, so it's time to look around the surrounding meadows and traditional wooden buildings.

Between the clouds

In playful mountain weather, we head up from the top station of the cable car along a marked path roughly south. The Berghotel Gerlosstein proudly rises above the valley.

Under Gerlosstein

We climb to 1770 m above sea level. Here is a turnoff leading to the left under the wall of Gerlosstein. However, we continue straight and right up to the top of Arbiskögerl (1830 m).

The clouds are above and below us, sometimes some details of the landscape appear like a ghost, only to disappear behind the cloud wall in a few moments.
