Schönberg
Easy tour up to the peak of Schönberg
Starting from the village center of Weißenbach (1,334 m), follow trail no. 5 and the signs marked “Schönberg.” The route gently ascends along a sunny slope via a farm access road, reaching the Brugger Hof in about 10 minutes. From there, continue either on the forest road or, if preferred, take the steeper old footpath through the forested slopes up to the Schönberg Alm (1,792 m).
Next, continue along trail no. 5 through increasingly sparse forest, passing the timberline and reaching the Kaserle-Oberhütten (2,164 m). From there, traverse grassy slopes interspersed with rock to a small saddle on the ridge. A short, cable-secured rocky section leads easily to the summit cross (2,273 m).
