alpannonia stage Semmering - Hochwechsel, Semmering

• The start of the alpannonia® long-distance hiking trail on the Semmering begins in an alpine, yet leisurely way
• The Zauberberg gondola lift takes you up the first 300 meters of altitude in an enjoyable way
• Once you reach the summit of the Hirschenkogel, you can immediately enjoy a first-class mountain panorama - even better from the viewing platform built right next to the top station of the gondola lift
• The Hirschenkogel and the viewing platform can of course also be reached via an easily accessible hiking trail from the village of Semmering without using the gondola lift
• The following stage runs up to the Feistritzsattel with constant ups and downs across alpine meadows and through forests, always with beautiful close-up views of Stuhleck, Hochwechsel and the Styrian-Lower Austrian Limestone Alps
• After the Feistritzsattel, you reach the 1,743 m high Hochwechsel with the Wetterkoglerhaus, our first stage end point, via gently ascending alpine pastures (so-called “Schwaigen”)
