Turn-by-turn directions
After a short descent to Loserboden and up again through a belt of mountain pines, you reach Hochanger (1,837 meters).
On the way to Greimuth you will probably reach one of the most famous natural phenomena on the Loser - the Loserfenster. The several meters high rock gate forms the picturesque frame for panoramic views of the Schönberg and the landscape around the Gschwandalm and the Schoßboden, which stretches under a huge rocky cliff.
Continue up behind the Augstsee lake to the saddle between Atterkogel and Greimuth. Keeping to the left, you cross a small field of mountain pines before reaching the summit pasture. The Greimuth (1,871 meters) offers views of the mighty and steep north face of the Loser.
From the Greimuth you continue to the Gschwandsattel, here you can already clearly see the summit pyramid covered with many mountain pines. At the Bräuning Zinken (1,899 meters) you are rewarded for the ascent with a magnificent panoramic view. Via the Bräuning Alm you return to the starting point.
This round can also be done in several stages and adapted in its length depending on your condition.

Equipment
Proper backpacking makes many things easier: pack heavy things first. The water bottle should always be within easy reach in a side pocket. All things that are often needed, such as sunglasses, camera or hiking map, belong on top. An emergency kit including blister plaster belongs in every backpack and a clothing according to the "onion system" is always recommended!Statistics
