Follow the lake to the campground, where the puzzle trail begins. Turn right toward Kulm and follow the edge of the forest toward Hohenberg. Then turn left and climb a slightly steeper path through the forest up to Kulm..
  • Let others know where you are going.
  • Turn back in good time if the weather deteriorates. If you get caught in a thunderstorm, stay away from individual trees. Wait out the storm, if possible in a crouching position.
  • Stay on marked trails and remember to close pasture fences.In case of emergency, keep calm and call the mountain rescue on 140. If you have no reception, take out the sim card and dial 112.
  • If you encounter cows: It is best to pass above the herd with at least 50 meters distance. Stay calm, don't make any frantic movements and don't run away. Do not imitate cow sounds and do not try to pet the animals. A stick and loud shouting can often make the animals turn back in an emergency.
  • If you are a dog owner: Clarify before the hike if you have to cross a pasture. Keep your dog on a leash and make sure he stays calm. If a cow attacks, let the dog off the leash immediately. Never pick him up to defend him.
For this tour, shoes with a light tread and clothing appropriate for the weather are sufficient. Pack in your backpack perhaps also a small snack to enjoy the nature.
Wih the bus 940/941 to the busstop ,,Putterersee''. Near there is the start point.

The next train station is far away 6 kilometers.

Mountains and valleys cannot stand the sight of rubbish on meadows and paths. Please take it with you. Agriculture and forestry are important partners for mountains and valleys. They allow you to walk and drive on many of their paths. Be aware that only good cooperation will ensure your leisure enjoyment in the future.
