From Filzensattel via Gabühelhütte - Grünegg Alm to Dienten

We take the hiking bus to the Filzensattel. From there we take trail no. 50 (forest road) to the fork Gabühelhütte/Steinbockalm. We follow this forest road to the Gabühelhütte (refreshment stop) - alternatively you can choose the beautiful forest path. Continue past the Gabühelbahn mountain station to the Steinbockalm (refreshments available). From the Steinbockalm, take trail no. 51 to the Lettenalm. From the Lettenalm, return a short distance to the Jausenstation Grünegg
turn-off (trail no. 440/12). Follow this to the Grünegg Alm (refreshments available, mountain farm museum). To get to the village of Dienten, follow the 
Güterweg trail no. 12 to the Dientner Landesstraße road or the Kirchsteig trail (no. 53b).

Self-assessment: Check your physical fitness before every mountain tour and correctly assess your strength as well as that of your companions - especially those of your children! Surefootedness and a head for heights are often very important!
Planning and preparation: Plan each intended mountain tour in detail beforehand. Hiking maps and guides as well as information from alpine associations and local experts such as mountain guides and mountain hut keepers can be helpful.
Equipment: On the mountain, you will need appropriate equipment and clothing, especially sturdy, high shoes with good grip soles. Weather and cold protection are essential, as the weather can often change unexpectedly.
Weather forecasts: Take note of the current weather conditions at: www.zamg.at
Together: Follow the 10 rules for the correct handling of grazing animals and do not leave any waste in nature!
Do not kick stones: Do not kick stones as this can seriously endanger other hikers. Marked places with a danger of falling rocks should be crossed as quickly as possible and with attention and caution.
Turn back in good time: This is not a disgrace, but a sign of common sense. It becomes necessary when the weather changes, fog rolls in, and also when the path is too difficult or not in good condition.

Emergency numbers: Alpine emergency call: 140, International emergency call: 112, Rescue: 144
