Popular around Pischelsdorf am Kulm
The classic cross shape with a longitudinal and a transverse beam, as we encounter it here on the Raas, can also be visually seen as a plus sign. The popular Innsbruck bishop Reinhold Stecher once explained this in one of his sermons as follows: "The small vertical stroke from minus to plus, which means so much in the mathematical equation, is in God's salvation algebra in its consequences not at all to be underestimated. Our existence is torn upwards, just as a whirlwind tears up leaves and branches. The great equation is therefore: Plus, parenthesis open, and then comes the long list with fate and guilt, darkness and light, merit and failure, fumbling faith and glimmering hope, parenthesis closed, is equal to: redeemed human."

Nice mountain that is easy to walk in winter. For the last piece you may need Grödel with ice cream. Great views in several directions. At the top the paths are a bit confusing, with barriers - but you can find your way around.

When climbing up, the last third part of the route is quite steep, at the top of the circular route the route is fenced off, so we missed the given direction of the Way of the Cross a bit and had to go over a Climb over with barbed wire and locked gate. The descent afterwards over a very beautiful piece of mixed forest to walk on. Be sure to stop at the Gasthaus Windhaber (very good food and friendly) about 4 hours. hiked. In my opinion, the hike is wonderful.
