Access to starting point:
Mixnitz is located in municipality Pernegg an der Mur and there we get from Graz (40 km from Graz) in the direction of Perneg an der Mur. The exit is well marked, in the settlement Mixnitz we follow the signs BÄRENSCHUTZKLAMM.
Path description:
The described path is currently CLOSED!
The path from the parking lot is well marked and after approx. 40 minutes of walking on a forest path we get to a smaller clearing, on which there is a "tollhouse" left from it leads the path through the forest towards the mountain hut ""Zum guten Hirten" on which I recommend to return. At the tollhouse we have to pay for an adult 3,50 EUR of entrance fee and we continue through natural monument of Graz hills, named Bärenschützklamm. We continue on approx. 290 stairs, 55 bridges, through breathtaking gorge all the way to the mountain hut "Zum guten Hirten".
From here we continue on a well-marked path through a clearing, whereupon after few hundred metrers we come out of the forest on a macadam road, where we turn left, and we leave it after good 500 meters and we continue on a forest path towards the summit. The path towards the summit turns right and is steeply ascending through the forest.
Miknitz - Bärenschützklamm 45 min, Bärenschützklamm - mountain hut Zum guten Hirten 1:30, Zum guten Hirten - Hochlantsch 1:30.
We can also also shorten the tour and from the mountain hut, we return on a forest path to the starting point.
