Experience trail From Alm to Alm (Hengstpass)

The Kalkalpen National Park nature experience trail is ideal for families with children and nature lovers who prefer less strenuous and shorter hikes. Along the way, there are managed alpine huts inviting you to stop and relax.
Centuries ago, on the "provision route" over Hengstpass, workers at the Styrian Erzberg were supplied with provisions and in return carried "provision iron" on the way back. To spare the draft animals, stallions were provided at the former pass station at Egglalm.

The "Hengsti" shows the way and invites you to discover the colorful diversity step by step "from Alm to Alm".

The themed trail at Hengstpass is a circular route between Puglalm, Karlhütte, and Laussabauernalm with a connection to Egglalm.
At the foot of Kampermauer, past Puglalm, the path leads through pastures that transition into a wooded area. After crossing Hengstpass road, Laussabaueralm is already in sight. From there, the trail follows along the Rotkreuz stream to the Rot-Kreuz chapel, where you can learn more about the healing effects of the Rot-Kreuz spring. A short climb to Hengstpass road completes the circuit. Walking time is 2 hours at a leisurely pace.

Please do not forget to save the route "offline" before you start, as mobile phone reception in the forest wilderness of the national park is not always available.

Hiking or leisure shoes, weatherproof clothing, sun protection, drink

The stations of the nature experience trail "From Alm to Alm" are set up for you from Mother's Day until early November (depending on snow conditions)
