Next to the dam on the Frauenbach, the route offers many small surprises for families with children. There are some wooden figures here that impart valuable knowledge along the way.

From Anna-Schutzhasu, 10 minutes on foot to the Ederplan summit cross. Even for an eMTB, a short, very steep final climb - but very worthwhile. The last 700 meters to the hut are a bad, trail-like road, the first 300 meters of which are very steep.

Easily accessible from the parking lot, nice as a stopover about 15 minutes walk to the waterfall with two beautiful viewing platforms

The tour from Dölsach was very disappointing. Most of the way goes along the Drau, where you walk almost continuously in the sun in the morning and afternoon. Moreover, the entire path is gravel or asphalt. Only the last section in the forest and at the waterfall was very pleasant and good for walking.
