Mountain tour to the Lahngang lakes and Pühringer hut
Furthermore, the Windloch, a sinkhole in which there is a constant draught of air from below. Finally, in front of the Pühringer hut worth mentioning, "Emils Tränenhügel". Emil Pühringer was a generous patron and donor of the Pühringer Hut. When (in 1927) he first saw "his hut" in this overwhelming scenery from this hill, he is said to have burst into tears of joy.

More information
You come to a narrow place with vertical rock walls, the so-called Draußengatterl. A wire rope protection helps to pass the sometimes slippery place.
You cross a gravel giant, the Lahngang, and climb via the Schafbichl to the Vorderer Lahngangsee at 1,500 meters above sea level. Further on, the marked path leads over the steep slope above the lake to the east. The Hintere Lahngangsee is hidden in a basin below the path.
A particularly charming place is the Elmgrube with its small huts and a hunting lodge. The prominent salt kiln frames this enchanting place.
You come to a fork in the path and continue to the right along path no. 201 in a northeasterly direction. After about 1.5 kilometers you reach the enchanting Elmsee and can already see the Pühringerhütte.
Return along the same path.
