This mountain road leads six kilometers uphill to the Kasberg family hiking area at 1,200 m above sea level.
Ride about 3 km from Grünau in the direction of Schindlbach to the mountain road ascent. The ascent (approx. 12%) takes you over pastureland, through high forest, larch meadows and beech valleys, with views of the valley and distant vistas, until you arrive at the Hochberg parking lot after 6 km and 12 hairpin bends.The Hochberghaus mountain inn awaits you here at 1200 m above sea level - a base for hikers, mountaineers and those seeking relaxation, as well as a starting point for beautiful hikes to the Kasberg, the Sepp-Huber-Hütte and more.
NOW SAY YOU! - A behavioral challenge from person to person! - Take a minute's silence on the way to the Hochberghaus - at exactly 1000 m above sea level. Because according to Alpine custom, you can address people you meet higher up as "Du"! So that you don't overlook this 1000 m mark (and mistakenly remain formal), we have erected a monument - the world's only DU-STEIN on the Farrenau mountain road.
