easy Hiking · Grimming-Donnersbachtal
If you prefer the more leisurely route, then start at Gasthof Grimmingblick and hike along the new gravel path in the direction of Panoramasee. Shortly before you reach the lake, turn left onto a path that leads past the New Planner Cross and up to the Planner Lake. Once you have arrived at your destination, you will find enchanting places for an enjoyable rest, directly at the clear mountain lake. Linger and enjoy and then perhaps hike further up to the ridge.
- Plan your tour in advance, taking into account walking time, route length, altitude difference, danger spots and the weather forecast.
- The Alpine Association provides detailed information on “safe mountain hiking”. You can find comprehensive information at www.alpenverein.at.
- Together is much more beautiful and safer in the mountains. If possible, don't go alone and adapt the tour to the ability of your group.
- Let them know where you are going and when you want to be back. Also make a note in the hut or summit books.
- Turn back in good time if the weather deteriorates. If you get caught in a thunderstorm, do not stay on the summit or ridge and keep away from individual trees. Wait out the storm, preferably in a crouched position.
- Stay on the marked paths and remember to close pasture fences.
- The way up is only half the battle. Stay alert, especially on the descents, to get back down to the valley safely.
- Keep calm in an emergency and call the mountain rescue service on 140. If you have no reception, take out your SIM card and dial 112.
- If you come across cows: It is best to pass above the herd at a distance of at least 50 meters. Stay calm, don't make any hectic movements and don't run away. Do not imitate cow sounds and do not try to stroke the animals. A stick and loud shouts can often make the animals turn back in an emergency.
- If you are a dog owner: clarify before the hike whether you need to cross a pasture. Keep your dog on a lead and make sure that it behaves calmly. In the event of a cow attack, let your dog off the lead immediately. Never pick him up to defend him.
