Granitzenbach natural monument to the Sabathyalm

Open
Start with an informative route along the Granitzenbach stream and then enjoy the beautiful nature on the Sabathyalm.
The Grantizenbach natural monument was placed under protection in 1989. You start this hike with the exciting nature trail. The entrance to the themed trail is located at the parking lot opposite the Kleinpöltzl farm below the village of St. Wolfgang.

You hike along a 500-metre forest road to the Alpine rock garden and on to the maple platform. The trail continues along a forest path that leads over several wooden footbridges and wooden bridges over the Granitzenbach stream. Some adventure stations invite you to join in. The trail ends at the Schaumühle, where a guided tour can also be booked.

From here, the trail turns left along hiking trail no. 316, which leads steadily through a magnificent natural setting directly to Alpengasthof Sabathy, where you can indulge yourselves. The way back is similar to the way there.
