This circular trail starts in the Duxeralm district of Hochkrimml. From here the path leads next to alpine meadows to the summit cross of Krimml's local mountain - the Plattenkogel. At the summit, in good weather, you have a magnificent view of the Hohe Tauern with the glaciated peaks, as well as in an easterly direction over the entire Salzach Valley and in a westerly direction into the Tyrolean Zillertal. The descent takes us in the direction of the Silberleiten district. On the way you can make a short detour to the Gletscherblick Alm. From the Silberleiten you hike back to the starting point.

Author’s recommendation

On the summit of the Plattenkogel, you will find a telescope that provides you with close-up views of the surrounding mountains along with information about the height of each of the peaks.
