From the Grabneralm you reach the Grabnertörl near the Admonterhaus in 1 hour, the turnoff to the "Jungfernsteig". The path crosses north-facing meadow and rocky terrain until it splits into a gully. This is followed by exposed passages and a short traverse with beautiful views and easy, varied trail. After about 1 hour you reach the summit of the Grabnerstein (1847 m), the most beautiful flower mountain in Styria.
