Turn-by-turn directions
Below the chairlift you hike up a slope to the top station of the chairlift. Here you are already at 1,885 meters above sea level. Continue over a wide ridge, first slightly descending, and then half-left again rising to the highest point of the Lawinenstein.
The 1,965 meter high summit is a flat plateau that rises like a balcony above the Ausseerland Salzkammergut.
Falling down is no danger there, you can look relaxed. And you should, because you don't have such a great nature cinema every day. The mighty Grimming, the glaciated Dachstein massif, the rugged stone walls of the Tote Gebirge, the Niedere Tauern, the Grundlsee and the most beautiful lake plateau of the Tauplitzalm.
