Exit from federal highway B320 east of Schladming and continue via Planaistraße road to Fastenberg and hotel Poserhof.
First take the Brandweg, then past the Schröckerhof and Asingerhof eastwards along Panorama Trail 100 through the forest where, after about 2 hours, you will reach the so-called "Gföllgraben". From there once again uphill to the Kemeterhof farm. Your return hike will backtrack along the same route. We would recommend bringing a small snack and drinks to enjoy along the way.
