Access to starting point:
From the border crossing Šentilj we continue driving on the highway towards Gradec / Graz and forward towards Linz and Salzburg. Highway A9 we soon leave and we continue driving slightly right in the direction towards Dunaj / Wien and we continue driving on the highway S35. The mention we leave the highway at exit for Mixnitz, and then at the roundabout we go to the exit in the direction of Teichalm. Further, we still follow the signs for Teichalm. At the end of the settlement St. Erhard we once again turn right towards Teichalm, and then we start ascending steeply. When we reach the mountain pasture Breitalm we gradually start descending, and we follow the road to the parking lot at the lake Teichalmsee.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we walk to the inn Almgasthof Zum Teichwirt, where we notice the first yellow hiking signposts. We go on the path in the direction of the summit Hochlantsch, and behind the buildings the path splits.
We choose the slightly left path in the direction of the summit Rote Wand and mountain hut Guter Hirte and gorge Bärenschützklamm. The path ahead at first leads through a larger meadow, and then passes into the forest, where it is lightly descending by the stream Mixnitzbach. Further follow few smaller crossroads, where we follow the signs for mountain hut Zum Guter Hirte, and the road then goes gradually away from the stream and it starts lightly ascending. After some time, the path once again splits, and we choose the path which continues right in the direction towards Schüsserlbrunn and Hochlantsch (straight - Zum Guten Hirten).
The path ahead leads us on a macadam road which is diagonally ascending, and higher from the left joins the path which leads past the mountain hut Zum Guten Hirten.
From here we few more minutes walk on a macadam road which leads us by abandoned pasture, and then blazes point us slightly to the left on a footpath which passes into a lane of a forest and ascends a little steeper. After few minutes of ascent through the forest we return on the road, and the path splits.
We continue left on the road (slightly left across the road - Hochlantsch) and we continue there to the hut Gasthaus Steirischer Jockl, from where a beautiful view opens up.
From the mountain hut, we continue in the direction of the church Schüsserlbrunn, and on numerous stairs we in few minutes descend to a wooden church, which is situated below the nearby wall.
