Greim over Eselsberg

A hike that is only for recommended for sure-footed walkers. However, the Greimgipfel rewards with a beautiful view as far as the Hochalmspitz and Dachstein. To the south, you can even make out the silhouette of the Mittagskogel.
This is a advanced hike: It is asked for surefootedness and sufficient condition. However, once you reach the summit, you will be rewarded with a fantastic panoramic view and a beautiful summit cross.

However, there are no refreshment facilities at the summit. It is therefore asked for sufficient food.
