The Schornbach and Höglwörther Seebach streams, both of which rise in the hills west of the A8 motorway, merge in a pond above Lake Höglwörth. From there, the lake's largest tributary cascades through the forest, plunging more than 30 meters down the slope to the west of the lake, via numerous stone cascades.

The gorge soon gives a clear view of the summit or the mountain station. Scenic ascent up the mountain forest. Keep an eye out for the chamois in the upper part!
